Here is the lower you want to start with.  Any Wisconsin people want to do a group buy?

In the coming months if it is still on Gun Broker I might possibly be getting an AR-180B and I was wondering since they don't have ambi safeties like the originals if I can use an AR-15 ambi safety on it? Or will those not work on AR-180 lower receivers? Anybody know?  If not does anybody know of any company that would make an ambi safety that would work on a AR-180B? Thanks.

.875" vs 1.125" wide so the safety selector on a "B" has a longer shaft.

Just picked up a clean 180B yesterday. It came with a Midwest Industries top rail. Very low round-count - the innards look new. Other than adding a red dot, this rifle is staying as-is.

Nice find! What did you give for it?

Nice light rifle. My 180-B strings vertically. I’m thinking about cutting the integral bake off and threading. My 80s AR-180 shoots quite accurately with 52 grain hollow point bullets.  The 180B has been a safe queen.

Way too much.
The seller wouldn't budge on his price of $1800, but I never come across these locally so I gave in to the ridiculous price.

Well, it’s not going to get any cheaper… I regret not picking one up at the LGS about 7 years ago, they wanted $600!

I remember when $600 was the average going price for them. It doesn't seem like very many were made, though.
