Trying to pull the trigger quickly due to CO law changes Looking for a lower for a 20” Blackhawk Down build. PSA m16a2 would be “good enough”? Other similarly priced options I should consider instead? |
I wouldn't stand in front of a piss-filled supersoaker. Does that make it a good pistol? - Caboose314
I thought I was covered for 22 cans, but the NFAids is a bitch when it mutates - themagikbullet

The anodizing is nicer than PSA's, they have a properly machined M16 FCG pocket and the spec on them is nice, I've got 4 or 5 of them now and they fit nice on every upper I've had on them. https://badattitudedept.com/clone-ar15-lower-receiver-government-property-m16a2/ |
