    Is there a good place to order at a fair price and get on the back order list. I'd be willing to pay $75/$85 for one (actually I'd get two) as long as it a decent brand. I hear DPMS has issues with not always being in spec, missing parts and lousy trigger so rather stay away from them.

    Is there some rank to who make the better LPKs? I've seen Stag, RRA, CCMG, Bushmaster, Hi Standard, and of course DPMS (is that a good orger?).
    I have had very good luck with RRA and Stap LPK's. The only issues I've had with DPMS, was with the roll pins for the trigger guard and bolt catch. I needed to use a pair of vice grips to pinch them together to get them to fit.

    I have a DPMS LPK in a Double Star Lower. Yes, the roll pins were a pain. Other than that, no issues.

    Well, they are currently a good buy at $125 + S&H = 138.xx at DSG Arms (OD and tan in stock, black out).

    I like it. seems well put together and I put my 6920 upper on it to test and it was very solid, no play what so ever in my case. I was pleased by that. Weather whatever upper I end up getting for it will be the same I don't know, but think it will be a winner.

    Loosing the collapsible stock is a minus, but not a big one really... and the storage compartment in the stock can come in handy. Plus I have a little on parts that are already built in.

    It affordable, less expansive to put together and something a little different. I don't regret it one bit, especially sense I walked out with a Stag lower too and a decent price, by today's standards.

    Still no luck with LPK's. I'm thinking about getting a two White Oak LPK. One with with Magpul enhanced trigger guard for the Stag lower and RAA trigger groups from ADCO. I already have a Hogue grip for the stag. They are back ordered, but so is just about everyone else.

    White Oak a good way to go?
