My understanding is that a standard .223 lower is capable of accepting pretty much any caliber upper that has the same case length as .223/5.56mm. If that is the case, then the lower receiver has essentially no bearing on what is safe/not safe to fire through any upper that may be attached to it, correct?
I'm looking at buying a few stag or rra lowers, as they can be had dirt cheap, and then I'll build up the rifles later with barrelled uppers (which from my understanding can be shipped directly, as they're not considered firearms).
Am I correct in my understanding? Sorry, I don't have much experience with ARs yet (but I plan on rectifying that soon!)
