Does anyone have an all stainless lower? What do you think of it if you do? |

I have one. Save your money. Unless, as said, you are building a very heavy bench gun they are not worth the wait or the money. I got one because I wanted an extra pound on my .458 SOCOM. It turned out the .458 SOCOM did not recoil near as much as I thought it was going to (12 ga. 3" my butt) and went to a standard lower. Mine sets on a DPMS .22LR dedicated bull barrel upper now. Live and learn. Quality wise it was OK, but far from perfect. It cannot be fitted with a Mag-Pul enhanced trigger guard without reshaping the TG ears and when it was on the .458 it had a mag issue. When the mag was seated it rubbed the front edge of the upper and would not drop free. I removed a few thousands of an inch from the front edge of the upper just below the barrel extension and then it worked well, but I feel that it was something I should not have had to do. And after waiting months to get it, I was not about to send it back. After taking it off the .458 I found it did that with another 5.56 upper also but due to the different shape of the .22 LR mag it works fine, and that is why it is on the .22 LR. |
