Where to get partial LPKs?
I recently picked up one of those excellent Adcor billet lowers.
http://adcordefense.com/product/bill...ower-receiver/
I am ready to build it up and it seems that parts are now becoming more and more available. This will be my 4th AR build.
It seems it is fairly easy to find high quality complete LPKs. However, I now have a growing collection of pistol grips and trigger guards that I will never use. I also want to build this billet lower up as DMR type rifle. Most likely I will use a high quality trigger system of some type, so I will only need all of the other lower parts. Does anyone know of a quality source for all of the other small parts for the lower outside of the trigger, hammer and associated springs?

Brownells carries all the parts separately.

Where can I buy just bulk roll pins and springs and such? Rather than just lpks it would be nice to have extras on hand

Well my plan is to buy pins and such in bulk from a supplier in the USA. That use MIL-spec and put kits together for cheap. I'm hoping to try for 15$ a kit minus the trigger group. Can seem to find source that makes triggers and sear

I've gotten all the springs and all the roll pins for it so far had to buy in bulk and its cost me around 40$ for 100 of each. No I just need to find the manufacture that makes the bolt catch, trigger and so on for these companies. I'm willing to invest money in it if I can figure it out. I want the average Joe to be able to purchase a kit and not feel like its a big expense as a back up repair kit or as a build kit. I know I get frustrated that I have to pay so much for pins and springs and little prices of metal.

So I found the actual manufactures for the majority of the parts in the lpk. Problem is they do orders of 5k. So now I have to somehow get them to sell me them in less quantities I was hoping around 500 pieces to start. I'm starting to get there just need time

Just a couple of places I have contacted regarding parts. I understand not all parts are manufactured in house by one company. that's why I am doing the research. I'm just trying to get the costs down on my end and in the process help others get a good quality parts kit at an affordable price.
