| I ordered a stripped spikes lower 9 weeks ago. I called my FFL today to find they ordered the wrong lower!!! They ordered a stripped bushmaster lower. I planned on putting a spikes lower on my bcm bfh upper (using a spikes lpk ). Should I just take the bushmaster? Will the trigger pins match? And bushmaster vs spikes.. what would you do? |
| AR lowers are the same for the most part. Personally ... I'd let the gun shop work the problem out for themselves. You asked for a Spike's lower so they should get you a Spike's lower. It shouldn't cost you a dime more than what you agreed to pay in the first place. In other words ... it's their mistake, they should eat their mistake. |

So OP . . . in conclusion, you should just tell your FFL to cram the bushy up his *ss, and buy a Spikes from AIM. WALAH! Ok... I spoke to the shop owner this evening. He said first thing Monday morning he will contact spikes and overnight one free of charge. Not bad. Thanks guys!!!! |

I never do, I've never sold one, never will. Just thought the OP might at least consider this information.

Based solely on brand recognition the Bushy will have a higher resale value. People who buy ARs plan on resale value ?? Blew my mind. true the Bushmaster lower will have a higher resale value and will be easier to sell if you ever need to sell it.Rock River Arms bring good prices so do Smith & Wesson and of course Colt |

You waited 9 WEEKS for a stripped Spike's lower. 2. You got the wrong one. 3. You called and now the shop owner can get you one overnight. The question should be, why the F didn't he do that in the first place? Quoted:

| Where do you live that you have to have an FFL "order" anything for you? I usually buy what I want and have them ship to whatever dealer/FFL holder has the lowest transfer fee. Here in Tucson it's like $20. Waiting 9 weeks for anything is stupid. Do it yourself and you won't have to wonder about what someone else bought. |
