[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Anyone else see this? New Frontier Glock Lower

9MM AR-15s seem to be getting more popular these days. 9mm ARs are nothing new, they’ve been around for decades, but the new trend seems to be AR lower receivers that accept Glock magazines. Most recently there was the Angstadt Arms UDP-9 from SHOT Show 2015 as well as a few others on the market. Well New Frontier Armory just posted a sneak peak of their budget friendly AR lower that works with any 9mm Glock mags. They just started production and should retail at just $169.99. Check out newfrontierarmory.com for details. - See more at: http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2015/06/25/new-frontier-armory-9mm-glock-ar-lower-sneak-peak/#sthash.iWGyLK0O.dpuf

Competition and variety is a great thing. 100 bucks less than a quartercircle10 lower.

Based on the pictures, the same style upper one would use on a QC10 or Colt. If you used a colt BCG one would need to relieve some of the bolt where it feed rounds / between the mag feed lips.

When I read "New Frontier," I expected to see a polymer lower. This looks billet - and extremely close in appearance to the QC10 Glock lower.

I had a nfa billet lower on my rifle I had to sell, it was excellent quality and finish was perfect. Dark black. Had to ask Midwest ind if they had darker uppers to match it.

They've put out one version of a polymer lower, two versions of forged aluminum lowers, two versions of billet aluminum lowers, are working on this project in billet aluminum, and have a .308 in the works in billet aluminum they've been tinkering with. While you should definitely think of them when it comes to polymer, it isn't and hasn't been their only focus.

That's good to know. All I've seen of their stuff has been polymer stuff at gun shows, which didn't endear them to me. Forged and billet are a different thing altogether.
