    Pretty hard to beat a blem lower from BCM. The price is right, you'll hardly notice the blemish and it's built right, no comspec parts or light weight buffer. The LPK and receiver extension kit are top notch.

    At one time the average joe at the range wouldn't know about BCM and they even were sneered at by the sale of the week crowd but now anyone who's been around the block will know you bought quality.

    It may need a bullet button befor it's shipped or your local FFL may take care of that but Grant can help you with that I bet.

    What is the best Lower to start with?

    Grant has taken care of me with BCM rifles and lowers. He's made them CA legal as well.

    Honestly, I wrestle with the thought of selling some of my more boutique rifles and buying as many BCM lowers as I can.

    I have gotten screwed twice now buying billet lowers. Each time the magwell is incredibly tight and standard mags won't drop free. One of the lowers was highly recommended by an industry professional. Needless to say, I will be sticking with BCM/Grant.

    I have similar concerns of the OP. I just bought my first AR last month (Colt 6920 MOE), and liked it so much I just bought another one.

    My thoughts were to have another solid rifle to play with different uppers, etc., while keeping the other one basically stock. Love my AR's, hate Commiefornia.

    Correct, KAC or, "STONER RIFLE", is banned by name. Also, nothing ambidextrous, unless you want to render the ambidextrous function useless by installing a bullet button on two sides.

    I agree with Grant. I have a few BCM blemed lowers and it's ridiculous to call it a blem. They are full functional and ready to go. God made Krylon for a reason- use it.

    Don't think it's going to matter what lower. Soon the bullet button will be outlawed in Cali and only sealed magwel lowers will be legal.

    I recently bought one of the BCM blems from Grant and couldn't be more satisfied. I found the blem pretty quick but I would barely consider it a blem.

    If you live in Southern California, you could walk into JD Machine and have them make you one. Lead time back in Jan was 5 weeks. I'm sure it is better now. Give them a call.
