Duffy, have you ever considered marketing your own lower parts kit with your safety, your pivot and detent pins, and the rest of the parts in a spec to your standard, minus the FCG and pistol grip?

I am pricing the individual parts besides your safety selector and pivot/detent pins. I will purchase my own Geissele trigger and Magpul grip. I think lots of us would buy a parts kit like what I am describing. I hate buying parts kits knowing I am not going to use many of the parts and then pay extra to buy your safety, and pins.

Is it worth your effort, well, only you can say.

Have we considered? It's on our minds all the time

The EPS was meant to be a standalone product, AND a part of the BAD-LPK-e. We're waiting for two more items to be produced, then we'll have our LPK, with or without a trigger

OK, good news. Please say it won't include an A2 pistol grip.

Now, I must ask. What might the other two items be? A pistol grip and .......

ETA , just saw the other thread on LPK, my bad. Will drop this one and follow that one. Thanks.

Not sure about A2 grip, it's one of the biggest complaints about plain Jane LPKs

But then we're not selling pre-packaged LPK, the grip, along with triggers, may be optional.

Don't forget options for trigger guard, and options for a Norgon.

What part are we not waiting on

We should see the introduction and roll out of one of them this summer, both versions of it. The other one isn't a part of a LPK, but we should see that this summer as well

Like most things we make, the bolt catch will incorporate ergonomic improvements that make using it more intuitive. These improvements will permeate throughout the enhanced human interface series of products to roll out this year, the series started with the BAD-ASS back in 2010, and will continue for a while

Due to the change of direction of the bolt catch (we'll be producing our own design(, this summer is unlikely

I was thinking about this the other day, since now I need your pins and selectors on every build this will work out great. Can't wait to see the new parts!

Me again.

Any update on this? Judging by F1 turn times, I should be looking at receiving mine pretty soon.
My stripped lower is still collecting dust in the back of the safe.

No ETA on the complete LPK. We are getting closer each day offering each of the components. We have the safety and pivot & takedown pins now. The magazine button, trigger guard, and bolt catch are in the works.

We will be releasing more and more components. Here are some of our currently available products. Best way is to follow us on Facebook (www.facebook.com/battlearms) and Instagram (#battlearms). They get updated with the latest news most frequently.

Latest release is our BAD-EMR (Enhanced Magazine Release). Unique "V-Shaped" Full Solid Button Face is ergonomic and self-centers your trigger finger on the button as you apply pressure. The horizontal grooves prevents vertical movement but allows for easy finger traction in the horizontal direction. Machined from solid billet 7075-T6 Aluminun, not 6061, it comes in 6..soon many more, anodized colors. It is also skeletonized on the back side for weight savings. It is slightly taller & biggerthan milspec buttons but weights the same.

While you are considering parts for your LPK - consider coil pins instead of slotted.

We like coiled spring pins too vs. roll pins. No worries, we never skimp on our products, even down to the smallest of components.

I'm putting a lower together right now and wish I could just buy a LPK from you guys. I will hold off on building/finishing the lower in hopes of you getting this to market. I have a few months to go as I slowly buy some other stuff.

I've got my LW receiver set, enhanced mag release button, titanium pins (going to re-prefer Because I meant to buy black). Need the rest: a bolt catch and rear plate so I can finish up.

Bolt Catch is still some time away. No ETA. It is likey at least a few months out. It is actually a complex part. We are still exploring best way to manufacture this part aside from CNC it out of billet.
