I'm building an AR, I need a lower parts kit that has all the springs and pins included. I do not need a trigger or a stock just all the pins and springs. Any help you guys can give me is very much appreciated!

DPMS will work

nope, DPMS= "OUT OF STOCK"
I have a POF lower, Vltor upper, DPMS 24" stainless fluted barrel, I have an Ace skeleton stock. To top it all off I have some new old stock "Triangle" hand guards, and a 3 prong flash hider. I will post pics when I get some pins and springs to put it all together.

Yea, I came here looking to post this same question.    They seem to be OOS everywhere, and on the off chance that you can find one for sale, they've gone from 50$ up to 100$ or more.

Either the supply chain needs to get caught up, or the price is going to just stay high.

Love to find one at 50-60$ again.

Try RB Precision, they can get you all/any small part(s) that you need.

I ordered 2 from M&A last week, in two separate orders. The first is scheduled to be delivered on Monday, says the email from UPS. Currently on time.

The second order I didn't order until Thursday or so. I am expecting shipping confirmations towards the beginning of next week.

They update their sight a few times a day and they were still in stock a few days ago. You can try there. mapartsinc.com

I have another source for entire rifle parts kits that should ship out within a week or less but I will make sure I can confirm it before I post any information.

+1 on M&A - I ordered complete LPK's last Friday...don;t know if they are currently selling parts from them, but they charge $60 for the LPK with no grip...cheapest shipping I've ever had on anything that I paid for over the internet...but I am close to them (two states away)...I never saw anything on their website, but I called and when I (finally) got through, they had all kinds of stuff that was listed as unavailable on their site.  Be prepared to hit redial for 20-30 minutes, maybe.  other posts have said that they ship really fast, too.

Just for clarity who is M&A?

M & A Parts, Inc....just got a recommendatin to them last week for LPK's in stock; I searched a little bit and found a couple posts from a long time (several years) ago that had some unhappy customers (poor customer service was the gripe), but the more recent comments were good (here and on GT).  I have yet to receive anything from them, but even though their phones are ringing off the hook, they went through a list of things they had in categories I asked about that were listed as OOS on their site, and answeered 30 questions about their complete AR kits...I was surprised that they ahd them and that their price was relatively reasonable, so asked about chrome-lining, barrely manufacturer, headspacing, shot peening, BCG staking, etc. etc. etc.  Seemed to be decent components, we'll see how the end product turns out shipped.

When you called after your order on Friday, did you ask if they still had LPKs in stock? I know they did when I ordered my first one but I have yet to hear back from them on my second and I wanted to confirm that they did still have them in stock when I ordered.

Oh yeah, not to brag but I lucked out when I was calling Del-ton to cancel my order of the same parts from them, I got through my second try. I didn't spend 3 minutes in between my first call and my order being canceled. I really lucked out. 3 months is a bit long to wait when others have the same thing in stock at only 10 bucks more.

I'll post up on LPK quality when it comes in and I get a chance to install it on one of my lowers.

I ordered on Thursday, and they said they were out of triggers and pistol grip screws.  They said they were working on getting some in.

Did they reply to you in your confirmation email or did you call on it?

^

I emailed for availability, sent to 2 guys.  One responded with yes they are in stock so i ordered.  The second guy responded the next day (or later in the day, I forgot) and said they were OOS.  I went back to the first guy to see what was up, and thats when I was told about the trigger and pin.

edit: this was for J&T dist. I mixed up my info, sorry about that.  I have a kit from J&T and M&A coming to me, I just have no word on the M&A kit. I ordered the J&T kit on tues 1/20.
