Quoted: I read a post in here on polymer lowers and really wanted to know how strong these are compared to the forged aluminum ones. I saw some with the stock and pistol grip permanently mounted on which looked lame. I have a Bushmaster catalogue and saw the Carbon 15 lowers which look to have the options of replacing pistol grip and stock, but dont' know what stocks are actually available for those either. What's out there that has the best durability and versatility in a lightweight build using aluminum upper.

CavArms makes great stock/reciever units, but they are fixed-stock only so if you want a telestock, you have to go with Hesse or Bushmaster.
The Hesse carbon lowers (a) aren't made by Hesse, and (b) are the only good product that they sell...
And of course, Bushmaster bought Pro-Ord and now makes the Carbon-15.
The last 2 use standard AR components, as they are merely polymer lowers....
