For many years my goal was to eventually have a complete lower for every upper (many are pistol/SBR uppers), finally got there.
This past year (although not so much the last few months) stripped lowers have been readily available around here for $40-60. I couldn't resist grabbing just one more when I could get them for <$50 locally with no transfer or shipping fees.
So now I aspire to having an upper for every lower
Recently I've fleshed out the parts to complete all the lowers, now I'm accumulating parts to build some uppers, and debating about alternate calibers and other options.
I think now is a good time to buy parts and set them aside for future builds as prices have generally never been better, but for speculating about the future, remember that in past panics it wasn't all that useful to have a stripped lower when virtually all other parts needed to complete them were scarce and over-priced.
If some one wants to speculate and buy lowers in hopes of selling them at higher prices later, fine with me, I'm a free-market fan.
