Stripped lower for your next build, what would you really want/
Getting ready to grab a stripped lower, my shop has a big selection.
If you could walk into a shop that carried every lower made and they said pick one lower for free, what would you go with.
I know some pick up their parts based on a set budget in mind, putting that aside what would you really get if all lowers cost the same.
I'm going to be using this a an SBR that starts out as a pistol, so I'm guessing anything would work. But I'm interested in hearing some input on what brand and GEN you would wish to have, and why (mainly so I'll know if there is anything out there that I'm not tracking)
From the pic I took of my shops display case here are a few of the brands they carry in stock.
KAC
Noveske
Ruger
Aero
Phase 5
KE Arms
Edit:They also carry
DPMS
Stag
Stripped lower for your next build, what would you really want/
I own 3 of the 6 on your list. So with that in mind, based on your list I would buy in preference:
1. Noveske Gen 1
Gen 1 because I use Redi-Mags on all my SBR's per build SOP. And because the one Noveske lower I do own was as close to "perfect" as I've ever seen.
2. Aero
Because 12 builds using Aero lowers and I have never once even had to email them about a spec tolerance issue or a finish issue. Furthermore the finish on my lowers have been consistent across the board.
I won't buy another KAC stripped lower. Period. I've had 2, with 1 currently in the stable.
I've never owned the other 3.
Not on your list and also never owned by me:
(But what I wouldn't mind owning/building out)
1. LaRue
2. Vltor (because I have a Vltor MUR-1A upper and it would be cool to pin a Vltor lower to it.
