    if its assembled and fires, there's nothin wrong with the lower receiver.. the parts used in the lower are a big unknown, but even crappy LPKs usually dont cause any problems. to avoid ending up with unknown lower receiver parts, build it yourself or buy a quality lower from LMT, BCM, DD, Colt, Sabre, or Stag

    I don't put much stock in the stamp on a lower. As long as it's in spec and you put quality parts inside you should be good to go.

    I concur that as long as it's in spec and has a quality LPK you should be GTG. I'm much more likely to slam you on the YHM rails.
    As the great warrior poet Ice-Cube once said, "If the day does not require an AK, it is good."

    Lee- "Dated" probably isn't the term most of us would use.

    ATI is Amchar. I don't think that I would buy any AR products from them.

    Fivefivesix,

    This is a slightly more professional board than most others, and posting in complete sentences instead of texting may get you more answers with future questions.

    You may also want to consider asking questions before you buy, instead of afterwards.
    Stick


    Board policy mandates I state that I shoot for BCM. I have also done work for 200 or so manufacturers within the firearm community. I am prior service, a full time LEO, firearm instructor, armorer, TL, martial arts instructor, and all around good guy.

    I also shoot and write for various publications. Let me know if you know cool secrets or have toys worthy of an article...
