So currently you can buy Anderson or Palmetto State Armory AR15 lowers for $30. Is there much difference in quality or fit?
Who has 80% lowers for $3080%...
Who has 80% lowers for $30
I haven’t seen any at that price for awhile
A budget gun ends up costing more due to the upgrades added after the initial build.
I think that is an old long remedied problem. All three of my Anderson "poverty ponies" were properly tapped.I know the grip screw hole on the Anderson is not tapped all the way through into the receiver, which creates problems if you decide to do the set screw trigger Improvement mod. I don't know about the PSA lower.
I just go with whatever the local gun shop has. Figure $30 for a stripped receiver + shipping + $20 for FFL transfer = $50 to $60. Most gun shops that carry stripped receivers sell them for that.
Concerning transfer fees, my LGS's charge one fee for up to 5 transfers.
When I had two other guns waiting on me,I went ahead and ordered 2 $30 lowers and paid a total of $20 on the transfer for all four items. Which makes the lowers $35 each with shipping and transfers.
