NSWC spec is M16 internal cut without third hole.
If Zev or Geissele is making the lower for APC, then I would buy one. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Could you do an enhanced funnel magwell like an Aero, KE Arms and some others have? What is the USGI magwell spec? Is it the same spec we've had since the original AR-15/M16? It makes sense to me that Crane would want to open up the magwell to facilitate faster reloads. But I think we would be aware of that change having been made. I just put together an AR with a Aero upper and lower fit was excellent and the setscrew was not needed. Ben, could you offer upper & lower pairs, in FDE? |

Quote HistoryQuoted: The tension screw and the tolerances for the lower are the biggest things. They are not inexpensive by any means. We could have done lowers a little cheaper, but the quality difference would be noticeable. So NSWC works off a different TDP? |

And fyi the APC has its own subforum here Well technically speaking he’s not wrong…. Interested I wanted nothing to do with this. I wanted nothing to do with being forced into the public eye. The day I committed to doing so out of necessity, I admitted to being a fed. I've never hid that. I greatly look forward to being able to fade into the background again someday. But I've got to see things through first, because no one else was doing so. We are making something good. We have to build it in a way that stays so. |

There can be strange fit issues with uppers, so unless you specify manufacturer or sell receiver sets, then it may not be a good idea. |

Most fit together pretty well imo. The screw is nice for those that want a very tight fit. I used one on my mk 12 clone. It certainly doesn't hurt anything with its presence. You can't tell it's there without removing the pistol grip. |
