Folks are paying top dollar for Gen II non-chainsaw lowers and they are showing up with issues galore only to get the run around by Noveske CS. What's going on with these Tier 1 people??

There are some pretty bashed up lowers in that thread. Personally I would not care but whatever, I can understand why someone paying a bunch of money is pissed.
I thought the chainsaw lower deal was pretty clever, but I guess they really opened themselves up to people expecting the full price lowers to be flawless. A lot of that looks no different than some of the bashed up stuff that Colt sends out the door.

Was there a certain problem that kept rearing it's head , or a random bunch of different things that were getting by ?
Also....what's the price difference between a 'chainsaw' lower and a regular , premium unit ? |

So long as it is within spec, who cares? All it does is hold things together. The real important bits are in the upper, anyway. |

Firm believer of the "lower is a lower" saying when it comes to forged lowers. Have narrowed down my choices to CMT or Mega when I get around to picking up my first billet set.

I would expect much much better from a non Chainsaw lower from a premium brand like Noveske. If it is it's being sold as having cosmetic flaws I'm out of give a fucks for those who complain so long as they function.
