Can we get them with ARFCOM and Oregon Team logo's?   Check it out

If so, I may be in for one or two.



Considering that deal competely fell through i doubt it.. but hell yes i would pay 10-20 more for a custom engraved lower... and if they had matching uppers i would hit that along with it..

It depends if I'm financially recovered from X-Mas or not. I've never built one and wouldn't mind starting, we'll see. I can always wait for the next GB, if I miss out on this one.

If you want any special engraving I think you should get it done on your own.

Come late January I'll check on the deal again, and start talking money so keep your EYES open.

So I did a quick count and came up with 30+ lowers.

I was under the impression that any lower could be transferred as a pistol.  Just gotta be listed as such on the 4473, not actually labelled as such, right?


NO, has to be registered by the manufacture as pistol...doesn't have to say it on the lower though.



Mega sends their lowers out as frame only so its not defined. In that case your dealer will be able to log it out as Pistol as long as it isn't logged in as a rilfe lower. In that case if Oregon treats longguns and handguns the same, as far as registration and such, then you are within federal regulations to build a pistol from a "virgin" receiver. All of this has been hashed out several times here on the boards.




Quoted:
I have no beef with Mega, there are not as refined as some other brands though.  There finish is nice, but also very thick.  The grainy teflon coating doesn't match well with all uppers.  The thick coating also can sometimes cause problems with mags failing to drop free...my pet pev.



You have a Mega with Teflon Coating? Where did that come from?

I would have to put my money on the not dropping free issue being due to the broach cutter for the magwell starting to wear out.  When this happens the holes they are designed to cut start getting undersized. I have had a Mega among several other brands with  tight magwells.

Tagged to see the outcome of what a "more refined" lower is and how it will match "all uppers"

I purchased both an Ametec & Mega lower over a year ago for  the above price shipped from Ametec,  and I personally like my Ametec lower better.  The Mega machining is a little nicer, but the magwell would not accept some of my Mags very easily.  My new Center mags were very very snug in my Mega, and some other mags were not drop free.  

No mag issues with my Ametec lower using Colt, Okay, Sanchez, and Center mags.

Amtec lowers are now $100 each.


I say CMMG!  They have a cool logo!

Anyways, guys, if we take our time we can get custom made Oregon AR15 lowers.....thats WAY better then any stupid Mega lower or Stag or what ever.

I'll work on getting a custom made Oregon only lower....thats something to have and keep.

If you want cheap lowers, I'll set you up with a dealer who will send you Stag's for $80 any time.

Who's lowers are they?
Oh boy.....I can envision a design thread for an Oregon AR15.com logo coming in the near future



I checked their site.  Stags are $115, RRA's are $120, Superior's are $90.  Care to guess?

I kinda had my heart set on a Mega (liked the logo).  But I'm in as long as I can build a pistol on it.

I would likely be in on a GB if it was for a lower either manufactured in Oregon or with an arfcom Team Oregon type logo.

I am not interested in anything 'made' by a particular freeloader in Snohomish WA.

It's nothing major. Just someone who didn't wish to become an advertiser. That in and of itself is no reason to not buy from someone. For many the advertising costs here wouldn't be practical. Add trying to make sales after repeated warnings about conducting business on the forums, then it becomes a reason for some of us not to buy from a particular source.

There was also some other stuff said by the person on certain topics which made even some of his faithful followers lose respect for the person. It has to do with a statement about child molesters. If I remembered the title I'd search the archive for it.

Anyway, there are plenty of good manufacturers out there. Just about any besides him would be ok with me. Like I said though, something Oregon related would be cool, IMO. If I were to be in on it though I'd need to work with a WA dealer.

Really makes no difference if they are coming from good people and they work good.  They have always been pretty cool in my book and they would be marked made in Oregon anyway.
