Moderators, I am not advertising or selling anything with this message. The current status of AR45 production is on hold. I found one company willing license the rights to manufacture the AR45 but they are having problems with insurance. there are only a few companies that underwrite insurance for gun companies. The insurance company that most of the big name AR15 makers use wants upwards of $20,000 - $30,000 per yer. We would have to sell tens of thousands of lowers to pay that and still make a profit. The proposed manufacturer is still working the issue and I have not given up hope. I am posting this message as I don't want potential buyers to sit on their .45 upper and GG mags waiting for a lower that may not make it to market for some time. In the mean time, I recommend the Cav Arms lower or the lower from eisman. They both have good products, just different ways to execute the theme. I am retiring from the Army in the next 6 months and can't do anything furthur to get set up as a manufacturer at my current location as I am moving when I retire. I'll continue to push to get the AR45 produced. Thanks for your support. TC Edited to add: I recontacted 3 gun manufacturers yesterday and one shot me down. Waiting to hear from the other 2. I will also contact as many manufacturers as I can, again. |

One of the companies I contacted yesterday said they would review my contract and get back with me next week. In the mean time, I suggest guys try the Sten mag/regular AR lower route to tide them over. I recommend the KKF magwell block as it does not protrude below the magwell and works great. |

The pics in the thread are all jacked up. Can you fix them? |

I can't fix the pictures. I used zoto.com and they just went to a pay for posting system and trashed over 100 of my photos. I just logged onto another picture hosting site and will need to upload all new pictures. Give me a day or two and i'll fix the pictures. I have hundreds of pictures here on arfcom and they are all gone. Thanks a fucking lot, Zoto. |
photobucket is a great source. I have been using them for many years now. |
