I like Seekins, as it's from Idaho, but the Mega lowers are nice, too.

You could always look into a Stag left-handed AR, if you want something different

Mega all the way. I have used them for 6 builds now. I have never had any problems.

MEGA - some of the finest machining and FINISH available.

I like the Mega lowers and would consider one but wished that they built up the area around the left hand side ambi mag release like POF does.  Of course the mega lowers are also cheaper.

MEGA makes an outstanding product. Very high quality. Their fit & finish is flawless. You'll know why they cost what they do once you see it.

Thanks guys, 1 more thing, was just curious with all those comments recommended for Mega, is this base on comparison directly with the Seekins lower?

I have one build w/ the Mega monolithic upper & billet lower, and their products are superb.

That being said, I also have Seekins products, and they, too, are of superb quality.

Both have excellent machining and finishes. You cannot go wrong with either.

the seekins lowers look pretty cool, but if I had the money id go with MEGA monolithic upper and matching lower

Heres the Seekins I recently put together. Fit and finish is excellent and the ambi-bolt release is also a plus.
Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics.

Both are top notch. Pick the Seekins for something unique.

Mega matched set.
Not a fan of the Seekins magwell swoosh.

The seekins is a pretty sick lower!!!  Honestly I was a little sceptical about the magwell swoosk, but it actually is something that once mine showed up I was in love!  I am  just waiting to get home now from TDY and I will build it all up.  However, coming from a guy that sees hundreds of ar's as I work for a gun shop as my day to day, the seekins and the spikes tactical are by far the sexiest looking lowers and the build/manufacturing quality is second to none.  The ambi release is awesome, the writing and roll marks are beautifully done, there is plenty of space for etching a class 3 item, and the increesed  magwell grip is ridiculously nice.  

ll around i love this lower and would reccommend it to anyone!

I like the Spike's Tactical version of Seekin billet lower.

I love my Mega Ambi lower, the quality of the machining is second to none.  Not a huge fan of the magwell on the Seekins.

Best billet lower I've used is the AXTS AX556. (Yes I've used the MEGA Billet and Seekins Billet, also LaRue Billet).

is Seekins lower playing nice with Betamags?

I vote for the  Seekins purely based on the fact that I have one on backorder.  i love the unique look of it.

Personally, I prefer the mega, I think the style they cut it goes well with many different uppers, where the seekins has the long curve on the magwell, I love how it looks by itself, but I don't like how it looks assembled with most uppers. But then again, I am really picky about how lines on my uppers and lowers match up, I know a ton of people love the seekins. They are both quality and you will have to decide based on looks and price.

Both are top notch.
I just picked up a Seekins for my next build. Finish is PERFECT. I kinda feel bad about having it cerakoted. But I love the burnt bronze.

I went with MEGA, and I am a damn happy customer.
