    BM LPK any good?

    Ive never used them, $70 locally and a friend wants to use it for a new build. Should he try it or stay clear? I told him go with with Grants but hes got "I want it now" gitters....

    Interesting post, what really seperates one LPK from another? besides maybe 20 bucks or so...what in the kit makes it better...

    Thanks, not trying to hi-jack here, but thought the clarification might help the thread...

    Let's put some things in perspective when discussing LPK's. There are only TWO LPK's that meet the Govt's reqs and only ONE is available for purchase. They are Colt and FN.

    Third (on my list for quality) is LMT.

    Everything else is ALWAYS going to be hit and miss. For instance, some people have great luck with RRA, BM, Stag, etc. Some do not.

    Typically speaking, the above companies are ALWAYS trying to cut corners. Manufacturers with a .Mil contract have a standard that they HAVE to follow. This is why their LPK's are always going to be the best.

    Thank you for that, I didn't know if it was something specific or not.

    The last 3 RRA LPK I held and looked at were HORRIBLE! I would rather use PDMS than those, fit and finish sucked big time. Im not saying they are all like this but the last 3 I saw I would touch with a 12 foot pole....

    Of course, C4IGrant makes a pretty good lower parts kit, himself (at least when he has all those individual parts in stock.)

    BTW - Loving the DD lower you built me.
