I would tell you to only good brands I personally I stay away for Anderson and other new brands that have came to market up over the last few year most of them are garbage.

Never thought once about a poly AR.
Go Ukraine! Piss on the Russian dead.
My very first AR was a polymer lower. It's still in the safe and functions properly. When I purchased the New Frontier polymer I have, the panic was high and I felt like having an AR was better than not, no matter the materials. Everything since, all aluminum. I don't plan on going back for another polymer, but printing one is an attractive option.
I firmly believe most failures can be traced to an over torqued castle nut. When 20 ft lbs is spec'd, hand tight can easily exceed that. I don't think polymer lowers are perfect, but I do believe when assembled properly, and inspected regularly, they shouldn't fail fantastically at the range. And therefore photos such as this are given more credit than they deserve. Possibly as a form of advertising/ endorsing something else. Of course, we all know what opinions are like.

my only question is why when you can buy a standard lower for $50 give or take. $10 or so does not warrant enough of a difference to buy a poly lower regardless of function.
Poly lowers are what $30? You can buy Anderson at $40-50 so why is how I view it.
I'm sure every manufacturer is different but for the New Frontier lower I found on their current site, yes. 20 ft lbs max for the castle nut.
