Can you buy a complete Fab 10 lower?
All I see is pieces and parts for sale.

Yes you can buy a complete lower. But complete can mean many different things.

I have seen them at shows and shops as stripped lowers, assembled with lower parts kits with a grip, complete lowers with buttstocks and complete rifles.

Where are you looking?

A complete lower as in one with the trigger group, pins, pistol grip and whatnot installed?

it might be cheaper to do it on your own, and it's pretty easy. Where are you located? I'm sure a fellow member would be able to help you assemble the lower parts if you need help, if not the instructions are posted on this site.

I couldn't imagine having a hard time finding a vendor to send a parts kit to CA.  I just bought one last week from Bravo Company.  Ordered it Thursday morning and I got it Monday.  I think most vendors here in the EE will have no problem sending an LPK to the PRK.

How do you like your Fab-10?
Do all the other parts fit well?
Is it much of an issue to roll the upper forward every time to load, and does the feeding go well?

Like it just fine. All of the parts fit well. And loading is easy.

Some have had problems with the mag follower tilting, so there are some who have a real problem with failure to feed. I have read that you can fix the feed problem by changing the follower out for a new USGI green anti tilt follower without the trimmed legs. This will limit you to about 7 - 8 rounds though.

I've been lucky, I guess. Never a problem. Yet.

The USGI follower (green) that I installed dropped the round count to 9 instead of 10.  

The FAB's a nice way to shoot this style rifle legally.

DO NOT COME TO THE PRK.......ITS BEEN CALL THE PRK FOR A REASON
DO NOT COME--DO NOT COME---GO somewhere  FREE...  all of us who's stuck here wants out but we can't so stay away from here....it's not worth the cost of living/the cost of freedom......but if you are just moving temporary or like because of a high paying job but don't plan on living forever here then go ahead and join us in the hole for awhile, we could use another citizen who understands his/her freedom rights and will help fight to get back what was taken from us

SLV is putting together a kit with an instruction video on how to install the trigger group, pins, pistol grip and whatnot.  They can not install these themselves or they would be subject to pay federal taxes.

For more information call Michael at 775-246-3500.  They put an ad out in the shotgun news this past month about it.

All you need is a FAB receiver, everything on your AR will transfer over to the FAB. The Magpull trigger guard needs some WECSOG to shorten it a little, but thats about a 5min job with a grinder.

Good instructions, I thought prdatr1  was looking for more than instructions, my mistake.  Pattymcn
