Anyone have any experience with this site and the quality on their lowers? Seems like a good deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasyEJL Posted March 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 I have only heard good things about them in general, but can't recall anyone talking specifically about their lowers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrtmasp Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Disregard..all ready out of stock. Damn, finding lowers is like trying to find the end of a rainbow searching for that pot of gold. My principles keep me from paying double the value on GB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goofball310 Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 PSA lowers constantly come up for sale on their site but they take 3-4 weeks to ship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a better deal right before the school shooting incident and I didn't take it but that price isn't bad for those specs. I'll keep an eye open for them, thanks.

I'll keep an eye open for them, thanks. I recall looking at stripped polymer ar15 lowers for $79 before the nonsense. I'm sort of glad everything that happened did happen though, it finally forced me to get off my butt and get a 308 AR :) well get the parts ordered. lower should finally be here next month Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goofball310 Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 You can still buy $70 & $80 dollar polymer lowers http://midwestpx.com/product_info.php?cPath=92&products_id=601#arpartsfinder.com http://palmettostatearmory.com/index.php/firearms/receivers/ati-omni-stripped-lower-receiver.html#arpartsfinder.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrtmasp Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 I looked into the whole polymer application on a light weight AR-15 with a pencil barrel. It would be fun to fire but my problem is still the whole idea of a polymer AR. I'm just not sold on the idea when you have a seemingly legit quality ultra light lower receiver on the market made by MAG. I plan on building a super light AR and if I were going to do it tomorrow it would be with a MAG. Who knows though...the polymer ones might be great. I don't think you can give a rigid opinion on the subject unless you've tried it and the company's competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrtmasp Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 (edited) Speaking of all this lower talk got me checking and impact guns is selling MAG lowers (223/5.56) for $200 right now. That is a fairly good price in today's market. The original sale price below 150 is very hard to get anywhere now, especially considering they're sale numbers are high.

Goofball310 Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 (edited) Brownells has them in stock as well for $220 in black and FDE. http://www.brownells.com/rifle-parts/receiver-amp-action-parts/receivers/lower-receivers/ar15-lightweight-lower-receiver-prod55523.aspx?ttver=1&psize=96 On that note, I've never picked up a USGI stripped upper and thought to myself I needed something lighter.

I just bought the one for 200 and a Seekins opened up for 170 just after our last post. That's 2 for me. I am officially maxed out for the year. Only gun talk no gun stuff buying. After the 308 and those 2 I would be jeopardizing my marriage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EasyEJL Posted March 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 I was pondering those polymer ones to do a super cheap 300 blackout build. I still may, but i'm going to wait till the 308 is together first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That ain't happening. poop we haven't even got together to shoot yet! I won't leave now that I'm hooked on all this. I just have to becareful and temper my urge to buy all the stuff I want when I hear or see it here. I'll apply and pay for the MAG lower to be turned into an ultra light SBR next year. Something to look forward to. I have to switch gears to AR-15s for a while before my 308 puts me in the poor house....wow, that made no sense considering all this stuff is expensive. Oh and who ever posted that link on another thread for an AR in 300 win mag is evil! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[img=http://forum.308ar.com/public/style_emoticons/default/laffs.gif] I thought you knew how we work around here. Well "Official Enabler" I would expect nothing less. You know the torture of it is that I signed up for so much stuff via email notification and some of it is starting to come in. It's a daily torture test I'm enduring now. Just got a notice for a mega ambi set...see what I mean? Anyone have $465? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rsquared Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Well that's half the fun of it. You order a bunch of stuff, and then it starts slowly surprising when the big brown truck rolls up. Hell....I've got stuff on backorder withArmalite, DSA, DSG, delta 3 tactical..........and don't even get me started on the class 3 stuff. You almost have to buy something new every other month. Just so eventually you start getting COOL surprises at least once a month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magwa Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 I have 2 PSA lowers they are of excellent quality, their barrels are made by FN and they overall have excellent products they can be slow to ship sometimes due to demand but i highly recommend them...

Love it! The SP15 is the Seekins that I already bought from JoeBobs. The SP223 is the one with the larger mag well...at least I think that's the number.
