Just saw somebody selling a "Preban" Essential arms complete lower for $800 and some guy offering to buy it. There is a Colt complete lower for 800 or 850 listed. I'd maybe give $250.00 for a complete EA lower, $450 for a Colt. Either I am a dinosaur or these people are CRAZY. I suspect the latter. They're just throwing fuel on the fire. But good for you for selling your unwanted stuff. If it gets any crazier I may cave in and clean out my closets/drawers/workbench and peddle my crap for double what it's worth, then I can buy it back for half in a year or ten.
Oh, and that "Preban" EA lower would be CAST, not forged.
