DoubleStar is great, and spikes is LAR Manufacturing. Both are good product.

I would contact your dealer of choice, and purchase the lower that meets your standards. That said, give Anvil Arms a call. I have had great experiences with them. Their prices are great, their customer service is impeccable, and their quality is top notch. (disclaimer: Just a happy customer of theirs!)

I have both Spikes and Superior, I think the Spikes finish is nicer , both mated up to my RRA uppers great . Spikes gives great customer service and ships everything overnight..

i went with the spikes lower, and i'm more than pleased.  good finish and fits really well with the del-ton upper.  also have you looked into buying one of del-tons kits and just a stripped lower?  it may save you a few bucks.

I really like the looks of my P.O.F. 416 Gen II upper.  Only about $25 more than the one you are looking at for a billet lower.  All of the other lowers I've seen to date are "Chevy's", while that POF is a Ferrarri.

Same question kind of:

What is the concensus on Stag lowers?  I am looking at picking up a Noveske rifleworks lower (possibly the entire rifle).  I believe the lowers are manufactured by Stag with the Noveske stamp.  That might be incorrect. Any thoughts?
