If we could get enough people for another batch, I would be in for an m16a4 lower.

Right now, Black Creek Precision is set up for only the M16A2 and M16A4 markings. On another special order, they may be able to change that to M4 and M4A1 upon request. The M16A2 and M16A4 lowers have their own serial number sequences as per the order that Steve and I did.

There isn't a current price. There was a single group purchase which started back in Feb. After the initial run was completed, it was discovered that some of the lettering was not correct and BCP offered either discounts or to re-make lowers. The people who opted for replacement lowers are now waiting on them to be finished.

Received a reply a few hours ago, apparently my FFL has had it since Saturday, but I didn't get an email.

Looks good this time.

I got mine but had to evacuate due to the storm. The marking corrections were well worth waiting for. The lower itself is modernized. The bolt release roll pin was replaced by an Alan screw. The opening for the traditional roll pin is only open in one side so you can't use the roll pin if you even wanted to. There is also an Alan screw holding in the spring for the rear receiver pin which is a nice touch. I put an area percision pats kit in it. I am happy with it all and all. The only thing that is not replicated correctly is the roll pin thing but that is very nitpicky.

Sounds good. Mine are at the FFL. Will pick up after Irma.

I got an E-mail from Tina on the 22nd of AUG that they were shipping that week.
Nothing from them yet.
Ron

UPDATE: I talked with Tina this week.
Everything is ok, there was a problem with a few of my receivers.
They sent them back to have the coating redone.
I should get them in a couple weeks.

Picked up my A2 and A4 lowers today. They are very nice. Honestly, the small marking issue with the couple letters is not that noticeable in person. I think the extremely zoomed on photos made it seem a lot worse. I am very happy with them. Thanks again for putting this together!

Hello. Just curious what brand of a2 upper do you have pictured with the bcp lower? The color and tone matches the bcp lower pretty well.

They were never in production. There was a very small run and there will be no more unless someone contacts BCP and places a custom order.

If there is another run, count me in.

If they do another run put me in for 1
