Just picked up my first one this evening. Pretty amazed at the quality for $39. Looks much more expensive.
Mine was a blem and I found a slight ding right at the front of the trigger cutout, in a very inconspicuous place. Had to look for several minutes to find it. If everything fits up well (and I expect it should) then I can recommend them. |

I wrenched one together and even though the fit is sloppy and everything seems to be slightly out of spec, it did go together and it shoots.
A buddy shooting it for the first time... |

If you are looking for their lowers cheap you can always make the trip to Bud's/Gun Warehouse in Lexington. They have/had them for $47 each, cash price. No shipping charges, no dealer fees, just sales tax.

Their website seems to say that you can pick up items at their store front. My message does look like I meant Anderson Factory. |

I bought one of the first I had seen when prices were in the $80 range. It went together well and looked good but had issues with GI aluminum mags. Tight front-to-back in the mag well. Would not drop most free. Black Dog magazines had no issues so now it is a dedicated .22 lower. Because of this one lower I now insert magazines into those I want to purchase first-hand.

Quote HistoryQuoted: I've had no problem with Andersons customer service. I had 3 stripped uppers that the FA rollpin hole too big. Anderson emailed me a UPS tracking label ASAP to return them and they sent out new ones. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: Never heard of anyone complaining...aside from the gay horse logo and font. I have one that is fine, another one won't take any upper receiver. I've tried 10 different uppers and none of them will fit. When you pay $49 dollars for a stripped lower, expect $49 worth of customer service if there is a problem.

There was a batch with tighter magwell.
Aluminum mags and Troy battle mags will drop free but Magpul will have hard time. This was about April. So try your mags before buying. |

I do not see any reason to pay more unless you want a billet lower custom look, one of those can't tell it from others at 20+ feet. Any more I just don't give much thought to the logos on the side what's in it and the upper interest me more. I really like the fit and finish of Spikes but I never did like Spiders, The older RRA logos sere neat and then they changed them. |

$50 each out the door should be the magical price on these. That's what they are here, and I plan to do a super cheap truck gun build with one.

I've bought three so far... Two are now complete rifles, one is still stripped waiting for me to be able to afford another build.
I like them, they have been problem free. |

Thanks all-he's stuck on $80 ! Looks like I can buy two at that price. Factor in shipping and FFL transfer if the deal you are looking at does not need those. |

Sorry just being honest that I am not fully sold on the horse(maybe they will grow on me) I do like the Spider logo though
 Quote HistoryQuoted:
All I hear is not crazy about the horse logo, funny thing is Colt also has a horse. I did notice their lowers are a little tighter than most on the tolerances, I used to cheat with most and drive the role pin just a bit threw the first hole on the bolt release, can't do it with an Anderson, not enough clearance to get the lever in. I got mine from Copes for $39+tax OTD =$45 I got enough to last a while. First time I do not have the need to finish any of them.

Got three of the AM15 integral trigger guard lowers. Bead blast finish is rough, but right on the money for the price. Would buy again, and again, and again.

I have a couple that assembled correctly and haven't had issues yet. Although I really don't need anymore lowers, it's always tempting at $40-$50. I just have to remind myself that it will invariably turn into a $1200 build.

Only problem I ever had with mine was that the buffer tube was extremely tight. Like, so tight it squeaked when I put it together, even with grease.
Good problem to have, as long as you never plan on disassembling it. I never will, most likely. Everything else was perfect. Pins went in perfectly, parts fit well, and the fit between the Anderson and my BCM upper was very tight without being any problem to assemble. All mags I've tested lock in positively and drop free. Would buy again. |
