Quote HistoryQuoted: Jesus that's nuts. Did it sell? Don't get me wrong I think these are cool, but that's crazy. Go take a look, it's still there. It's the billet lower. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: What’s the going rate for one of there forged lowers? There was 1 in the EE last night for a short time, latest version. Can't tell if it was presold, sold, or changed their mind. But, you can see what they were asking. |

So are these forged lowers ever coming back or are they done with production?

Quote HistoryQuoted: So are these forged lowers ever coming back or are they done with production? I'm not counting them out just yet but if they do it's going to be a while. Like a long while. I asked some time ago and was told there are no current plans for a run. They keep their soft goods going, so they tells me they do want to keep the ship afloat, even if it's just a side project for them. I'm really curious what their "regular" hustle is in the years that runs aren't being released. Judging by the timing of email responses, I think Wanda has a separate 9-5. |

I know its probably a small minority but with the covid hype and vaccine its shit straight out of RE. You would think theyd want to do some runs to capitalize on it. Like every joe blow did with the zombie craze.
Edit. Or sell the rights to psa and let them make some lowers. |

The one for $2K was a billet lower. It's high, if you ask me. I tried to talk to the seller, but he wouldn't budge.
Forged are running around $500, a little higher for the ADAC model. The billets are running around $1K. Uppers are tougher to find and BCGs & charging handles are unicorns. |

This makes me feel a odd knowing that I have an UCWRG raptor charging handle in one of my rifles. |

I don't know who they source from, but they're clean and precise. I'm going to see if I can weasel the info next time I email them

From what I can tell that was their goal - if you are going to make something, make it right. I am just using a raptor CH and I figure its close enough

Quote HistoryQuoted: I believe there was one lower in the EE awhile back sitting at $2k. Way to rich for my blood. Quote HistoryQuoted: I believe there was one lower in the EE awhile back sitting at $2k. Way to rich for my blood. I have a forged lower from their last run i'd might consider selling. it's just been sitting in the safe in its box since i bought it. if youre really wanting it, send me a pm with what you'd consider paying for it. I dont want 2k, but i know what i sold my other one i had for back in 2014ish. and would hope for around that or it can sit in the safe. lol Quoted: Actually I found mine and it is an untextured one compared to what Rainier has listed on their site right now. I don't expect huge money for it or anything but if it would go better on someone's UCWR build let me know and I can pull it off and sell it. If i dont sell my other lower here, i'd be interested in it. i love the grip 23 angle, and prefer the untextured personally. Quoted: I believe there was one lower in the EE awhile back sitting at $2k. Way to rich for my blood. yeah thats way too rediculous for a stripped lower. |

I too am still looking for a BCG by Umbrella.

My true trophy is that (red umbrella charging handle) you and I discussed a while back. I think imma just leave it in the packaging in the safe, too. And just use another regular red radian charging handle, in my inventory. For when I do finish my build. |

Quote HistoryQuoted:  Got this lower during the great panic of 2012-2013, if my memory serves me. Ah yes, when they were periodically releasing (1) lower at a time on their website throughout the night. F5 got quite a workout… |

Lol cheers, man. perhaps.. idk.. half me doesnt mind it just sitting collecting dust, since ihave my g2 umbrella built already. that said, i'd have to collect a lot of unobtainium parts over the years to build another Umbrella.. I'd need an upper receiver, a bolt carrier group x2(one for my origiinal build and this one) another Umbrella Raptor charging handle, another umbrella build kit, and if they ever come out with hand guards and barrels, well there you go too... what makes the adac so much more desireable? |

For you guys still looking for a BCG, slide in my DMs. I'm giving up on my second build, and selling the extra I have.
Thought I'd mention it here before I list in the EE. Not cheap; just say'n. |

Don't think you will see any new Umbrella Corp receivers. Rumor is that Capcom legal department got involved regarding trade mark infringement.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Don't think you will see any new Umbrella Corp receivers. Rumor is that Capcom legal department got involved regarding trade mark infringement. That was resolved years ago. Capcom doesn't own the Umbrella Corp IP for firearm stuff, UCWRG does, which was one of the first discussions I had with their CS people when giving input on the receiver design. Kinda why the Arfcom logo is widely registered for stuff that arf probably won't ever get into, simply because it keeps someone from filling ownership in that area. Now if they let it lapse or Capcom found a new angle, maybe, but it used to be solidly locked up. |
