I'm wanting to build an AR-10 in 6.5 Creedmoor. I'm planning on buying just some parts here and there until it's finally done. My first purchase was going to be a lower. I've looked into it very little before but I found out enough to know that they are not anywhere near as standard as an AR-15. From the research I've done tonight it's even worse than I thought. Apparently there's only certain lowers that are compatible with PMAG's (Which is what I want to use) and there's also LR308's, and you have to make sure you are buying the correct parts depending on which type of rifle you're trying to build.
So my question is, who makes a good quality lower to start my build that will accept PMAG's and, hell while we're at it, has a reputation for accepting the majority of parts? Looking forward to starting this process and learning a new rifle. |

Aero Precision makes some decent stuff. The M5 lower can be had for about $180. The M5E1 upper is a solid piece as well, and mates up with their enhanced handguards. All 3 pieces can be had for around $450-ish.
Billet will cost you more, like the set that Mega Arms makes, or Seekins and Balios. Those come out around $900 and more. |

Palmetto State lower for $99 shipped and a matching upper for $149 is what I used here. http://i367.photobucket.com/albums/oo119/hotdogit250/6.5%20Creedmoor%20001_zpskcqzkjow.jpg That lower is a daily deal and expires tonight at midnight. |
