I have a Spikes lower that is way out of spec. It's not even close. Its a model SL15.
Who made these for you? I wish to send it back for either a replacement or if its gonna be to long time, a refund will be fine. I have 3 other branded spikes lowers that are acceptable but not truly up to my standards. Thanks |

I don't even need to measure anything to tell its a mile off. Again I ask...who actually made these for you? I want to be sure I don't buy anything from that manufacture. This receiver is a SL15. How would you like to proceed? |

Lets see.....
30 to ship it back UPS overnight. I have no way of telling of where I'm sending is a ffl location. ATF should like that. You ship me out another one. Transfer fees and such 40 bucks. NOT Lowering my blood pressure after getting rid of this piece of junk PRICELESS>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Just keep your stuff....Looks like you can't even make a 22 cal upper work. Thanks  |

Thanks http://i39.tinypic.com/1t3g28.jpg I didn't think crack heads could even own firearms..................you sir are acting the idiot. ANY manufacturer would be well within their rights to tell you to piss off at this point and I'd RESPECT their decision. |

See their name on the side of the receiver?
That's generally a sign that they're an FFL of some sort. |

Just an FYI for everyone looking in should they ever need to return a firearm to any manufacturer:
Any person can ship a firearm to the manufacturer for repair or replacement, and the manufacturer can send a replacement directly to them: 18 U.S.C. 922(a)(2)(A) (A) this paragraph and subsection (b)(3) shall not be held to preclude a licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, licensed dealer, or licensed collector from returning a firearm or replacement firearm of the same kind and type to a person from whom it was received; and this paragraph shall not be held to preclude an individual from mailing a firearm owned in compliance with Federal, State, and local law to a licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, licensed dealer, or licensed collector; http://www.atf.gov/pub/fire-explo_pub/2005/p53004/18usc_chap44.pdf |
