What is everyone's opinion or experience with AR15 carbon fiber lowers. I have a chance to purchase one at a reasonable price; it would only be used as a target gun.
Thanks

Stay away from it.
Since nobody is revising the actual design to accommodate what carbon mesh/epoxy does and doesn't do well, avoid. They have the potential to be much better, but there are about 4 points that really don't suit any of the current designs - with some significant design revisions, and probably a lot of aluminum or steel insert spots, they should be better, but if you're seeing a carbon fibre one that doesn't cost more than a forged 7000 series aluminum unit, it's not because it's better.
They break, like all the time. Just stay away.

Buy once, cry once.
I would like to thank everyone for their replies. I will not be buying the carbon fiber AR15.
For a dedicated .22 plinker sure why not, but even then why not just buy a 15/22 instead and save the money. For everything asides from .22 not worth a crap no matter what the company says or claims.
