I am looking at getting my 07 and was wondering where to look for getting lowers made with my company name, etc.

I know that most of the lowers in the market are made by one or two companies, but dont know hwere to go to get info on getting them for manufacturing.

Thanks

Mega +1. Essential Arms might as well.

there are actually quite a few companies that machine lowers. probably at least a dozen or maybe quite a bit more. there are not so many companies who make the raw forgings though.

I have to imagine that you would have to place a decent sized order to get your info engraved and keep it at a reasonable price. I would love to be wrong about this so if anybody knows otherwise let us know.

Abrams Airborne make them for a manufacturer that I read about at the grocery store the other day. I can't remember who the company was.

I talked to SI defense (www.sonju.net) a while ago about making some and they did it then, but it wasnt cheap and you needed to order a few. I built some of their lowers and they went together very nicely and had nice quality.
