I'm looking to build my first AR, and their parts and prices seem pretty good. Anybody purchase from them, and how was the experience

I have An older E.A. reciever.Have had no problems with it. Can't say how their new stuff is.

Good stuff, I recommend them. Good customer service too, Vaughn is a good guy to deal with. They are a fairly small shop so it can be hard getting through sometimes but worth it.

I've bought three lowers and a matched flatop upper and lower in OD green. Good prices. Good service and they seem to be good folks.

I recommend them and will purchase from them again.

Just ordered 2 of their black "Tuffcoat" lowers (total: $ 244.15 delivered to my local FFL.) that I should receive in a week or so.
I was able to pay by credit card.
I got through to them on the 2nd call.
My advice is start calling at 9:00 AM and hit "redial" till you get a human.
Once you do they are very pleasant to deal with.
I will post pics and a description when I get my receivers.

From what I read over at AR15.com these are well respected high quality "sleepers".

Mine will eventually have a 16" BCM carbine upper on it.

However, if you want LOWERS take a look at this deal from Spikes Tactical!

I have one of their lowers on my AR. Got it new at a guns show 5 years ago for $75. No problems. Didn't they used to build lowers for DPMS?

Forgot to mention they actually called me back to ask if I wanted my lowers with consecutive serial numbers!
