Palmetto State Armory has a weekend special on blem lowers for $59 each. I ordered 3 and the total was right at $200 shipped. That being said, I have several builds on Spike's lowers and can't complain about there quality.

Right now the world is your oyster. The prices are back to normal. If your hornier for one roll mark over another that's where you'll pay more.

Sounds like that DROS fee (I assume that's some silly Kalifornia thing) is going to make a stripped lower more expensive for you, me for example I'll try to find one with free shipping and then pay a $15 transfer fee. But at $136 its not that bad, you may be paying $20-30 more than people elsewhere but you'll forget about that little bit of money once you have much more in it at the end of your build.

Yeah, Kalifornia kills us on the DROS fees. It's $25 plus whatever the dealer wants to charge as a transfer fee. $45 is actually the cheapest I've found that's within a reasonable distance. Thankfully it also happens to be the closest. |

You can't go wrong with Spike's. You get amazing quality at a low price. Before all those fun fees a Spike's stripped lower will run you anywhere between $76 to $120. If ordering online I would stick with Aim Surplus, Joe Bob Outfitters, and Primary Arms.

We've got a few FDE, Tungsten, and Anodize black lowers in stock. Ready to ship $179 (stripped). Give us a try... when you are ready, we have a matching upper.

$179 plus all the fees on my end is too steep for a stripped lower for me. Although I do love the look of the completely FDE lower, just out of my price range.

With your DROS fees, yes. $136 is good.

What part of CA are you from? Around here (Clovis/Fresno) stripped lowers are pretty affordable. Shoot me a IM and I can recommend you some shops if you're near by.

When you find a dealer ask if the transfer is for each lower or will he do multiples for the same price.
The DROS (dealer record of sale) is for the background check and pretty sure you can still get multiples (was 4 spaces on form) and just pay the one time $25 fee. I use to do it that way when Big5 had layaways on firearms and pay off all but $5 on each until I had 3 or 4 and DROS them all at once, saving $50 to $75. If you could get 4 of the PSA blems for $60 each and only pay one transfer and DROS fee it can save you quite a bit. Also you can check the dealer locator on gunbroker and maybe find a small out of the way shop that will deal with you. |
