I know we've all been pretty used to these $30-$40 Anderson lowers, they're been cheap and they still are cheap. But I have a strong feeling that they won't stay that way. So go buy a couple.
 I just got a few more and they came out to $41.50 before the FFL fee. That is all.

So what happens when the panic hits hard and you can't find the parts to complete those builds? I would be sure to also get the uppers/parts to complete them just in case.

Lowers with out uppers, FCG's and BCG's are just paper weights. I am investing my money in the things all the lower hoarders will need to build a real gun.

I've got a couple blem PSA lowers on order. I have no idea what I want to do with them, but I figure, fuck it, it's an election year, and I can always flip them for a profit if it comes to it. I've got 3 AR's set up just how I want them.

You probably also want to pick up some 1/4"-28tpi 3/4" long grip screws too.
I have three Anderson lowers where they didn't tap the last .25" for some unknown fucking reason. I don't think i'll be buying any more Anderson lowers if I have to use non standard parts to make them work. |
