I am getting as many lowers as I can afford before you know what is going to happen. I am thinking about getting 2 uppers for each lower because the barrel will eventually wear out. The lower could be replace with a LPK once that wears out.
The question is for those who has fired alot of rounds(>5000). Has anyone still use their original lower without any problems? Will the trigger pin holes eventually wear out? Should I think about matching 1 lower per barrel just in case? |

The Air Force still has lowers from the 1960's that are used hard everyday. As long as you don't have a kaboom that breaks everything I would guess the lower would never wear out. It might get a little loose or sloppy but never wear out. really? ![]() Yep, they have all the oldest rifles in CATM. They get shot 100 rounds almost everyday, seldomly get a good cleaning, and have people treating them like shit on a concrete shooting pad because they don't own them. That's about 26,000 rounds a year for who knows how many years. Each rebuilt A1 lower probably has close to a million rounds on it. They still function like new. Really. |
