    Just ordered the Aero, will compare it to my Mega when it arrives. If it is as good as stated, $60 is a heck of a deal.

    As for the prices, I can get an Aero and a Spikes lower parts kit for the price of a Rainier Arms lower with no parts.
    Part of the price of the RA lower is their reputation and customer service - in addition to their lowers being manufactured by a top company. RA is a fantastic company and you will very rarely hear anything negative come from them. Not to take anything away from PA - they're great too. RA has always had generally higher prices but you know if anything goes sideways, they will 100% fix it or solve it to the best of their ability.

    I do think that lower price is on the high side though, even with what I just said.

    I just want a good quality lower but not want to overspend. If a $75 - $100 lower will do just as good as a $150 lower, then I see no reason to buy the $150 lower.

    Prices are still coming down. Maybe in a few months those $150 lowers will be marked down.





    If hillary gets her party nomination prices will probably go through the roof.

    Before the 2016 elections I would like to have a rifle built for each of my kids, and then have a few spare lowers to sell on the open market.
    If you aren't worried about the roll mark, then why are you worried about when the price on $150 dollar lowers will come down? Just go with the Aero, you won't be sorry.

    Remember that the Rainier has a slightly flared magwell, upper/lower tensioning screw, and is compatible with BAD's short throw safety. These features may or may not be important to you, but they likely account for at least part of the price difference.

    The word "ban" is not used anywhere in the original post. So bringing it up is missing the point.

    So how about we actually drop that, and proceed with the gentleman's actual question? Thanks muchly.

    If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong.

    The last thing I want to do is hurt you,
    but it's still on my list.

    I believe aero has models that are BAD lever compatible as well. Not sure the price of them though.

    Personally, I don't care what roll mark is on a lower as long as it's a quality piece of equipment. Aero, CMT, and I THINK LAR make 90% of all the lowers out there. As long as you get one of these, you should be GTG. The way prices are right now, you should be stocking up!
