I love the variety in the uppers available and wouldn't mind seeing the same in the lowers. Options for maybe a stripped lower or different stock & grip combos. I just ordered an upper and wanted to stay with BCM but I ended up going elsewhere for the lower because of the options available. They offer different rail options on the uppers to choose from, so maybe they could add a couple variants in lower receiver furniture.
Sorry if this was discussed prior, I didn't see any threads on it. |

The main issue with lowers is if you want an option which requires removal of the receiver extension (requiring a good wrench and re-staking), such as to add a low profile aftermarket sling attachment receiver plate, like the Noveske QD swivel plate or the Magpul ASAP. Those are both steel plates which allow for re-staking and would be good, versatile options. The other major option is the new VLTOR A5/EMOD buffer/stock system which is reported to cure carrier bounce and shoot very softly while being reliable. Other common lower receiver mods are simple enough for LSHD/tool-less end users to perform themselves, and offering the A5/EMOD pre-installed would save significant money. Therefore I would like to see 4 options: Lower, Noveske QD end plate, M4 extension Lower, ASAP, M4 extension Lower, Noveske QD end plate, A5/EMOD Lower, ASAP, A5/EMOD Thoughts? Frankly, I'd also like to see a BFH 14.5" LW middy dissipator with an 11" LaRue rail and a perm'd Battle Comp 1.5  And all 3 Gunfighter charging handles should be an upcharge option in the dropdown menu with the uppers.

I already asked. I would like to be able to order lowers without all the hassle. If they were on your website i would have no need to go with any other company. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |
