ArmaLite/Eagle Arms and Cavalry Arms have teamed up to offer you the new Eagle Arms polymer lower receivers.  These receivers are injection molded from glass filled nylon 6, and they are corrosion resistant, very durable, and significantly lighter than aluminum based receivers.


From the Armalite site.

Key word is TEAMED UP.


Sounds like a wise business decision.  And you sir are a

OLD news.  Basically Armalite came in and bought out their production run.  Its good for both businesses.

What if I want CAVARMS on the lower not EAGLE. I'm a local boy in Phoenix and don't want to see a MANUFACTURER go away. I've been at shoots with Shawn and got to use the PRODUCT and was very impressed. I am concerned about QUALITY and BRAND recognition.

Thank you and good day sir.

I said GOOD DAY SIR!!!!

Better get hot, 'cuz they ain't makin' no more with the CavArms stamp!  





BTW - The manufacturer is not going away. The product and production are not changing at all, other than the name-stamp on the receiver. If anything CavArms will be growing larger as a result of this move.

Oh crap.  Went back and read the thread.  That sucks.  Good for Cav Arms though.

Just IM'd Sinistral Rifleman.  No more Cav branded lowers, and most likely no more colors other than black, green and coyote.

$5 says that AR15.com played at least a minimal role in this deal.
