Quoted: How much "REAL" difference is there between say, Denny's (STAG) lowers and LMT???
I mean, they want an arm, leg and but cheek for the LMTs. How far out could the tollerances be??
I have looked @ Denny's lowers & I'm considering a couple of them. Not sure if I would get stripped or complete lowers from him. I am very new into ARs... so I would really like to do it right the first time... Learn from other's mistakes.
I will... at some point in the future, be acquiring an auto sear, so I would like to make sure that the rifle I build today, will be capable of full auto tomorrow.

I have a LMT Defender 2000 lower with a 16" LMT M4 upper also.
I also built my Colt Match Target HBAR lower and I removed and installed a new barrel on my Colt LE6721 tactical carbine.
Both Denny's/ Stag/ CMT and the LMT are tops in quality according to most of the members here, they're all made per the blue print drawing dimensions and tolerances.
A lot of great pro custom gun makers like Noveske Rifleworks, MSTN, Denny's Guns, etc. are using these brands of lowers.
If you're just new into ARs, I would suggest you get a completed lower first to avoid expensive mistakes in your build. When you get familiar with it later, you could try to build from a stripped lower.
All lowers could be machined later on for full auto conversion except try to avoid the lowers with the sear block (see Kisara's photo, the sear block could be seen behind the hammer).
Denny's lower would be a good choice because you don't have to change the "SEMI" selector markings, you just have to add the "AUTO" markings later on when you do your legal auto conversion.
Good luck on your project.
