[MegademiC]

From the M4C past:

Attachment 69992

Poverty Pony to Majestic Mustang

-hilarious name found in the redit thread

I hope they smoke some scumbags with them.

That settles it, I'm getting an Anderson carbine with a Holosun RDS, if it is good enough for Ukraine it is good enough for me.

[RUTGERS95]

I would rather take an Anderson into combat, than nothing at all.

spot on

some of the comments here are absurd

[rpoL98]

maybe Anderson should come out with a "Slava Ukraine" version, with cyrillic markings for SAFE, SEMI, and FULL-SEMI.

sorta like what PSA does, to capture the historical moment.

[Ned Christiansen]

Not even from Will Larson? I know you knew him.

We discussed a lot of things but Anderson Receivers was never one of them.

Isn't Anderson a OEM of parts for other brands?

Anderson was my entry into ARs , still have it and still shoot it , changed a bit , put a Hogue FF carbine length HG on it , Strike industries mod 1 butt , hogue over mold grip ,Aero ambi charging and Leupold Feedom RDS , never understood the disdain for them ,always figured what ever turned so many off of them happened when i was still a die hard AK guy because my Anderson has given me zero complaints

so what exactly is the issue everyone has with them , is it DD or nothing mentality or is there a substantial legitimate gripe , just curios , asked before elsewhere a few times and either it gets ignored or its someone bragging about their overpriced gucci

As far as their stripped lowers, it seems that most of the major issues that people had with them were all prior to 2016. I really haven't heard many complaints since.

I had an Anderson lower ($40.00) a few years ago. Stuffed it with Colt parts from SA, screwed a Colt RE into it, H2 buffer and Colt spring. I had a 6920 upper at the time that I put on it and ran it alongside my other Colts. Blindfolded you would not be able to pick it out. It went in a multi layered gun trade last year with a friend who still has it.
