Buying from Rainier Arms

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Buying from Rainier Arms

Posted: 11/27/2007 7:20:34 PM EDT

Does anyone know if you can buy a stripped lower directly from Rainier arms, or do they have to ship to a dealer? I didn't see any directions to an actual store on their site, except I see they're in Kent. I just wanted to save the transfer fee if I could actually just pick it up directly. Thanks for your help.

Yep, you can buy direct from them, call them, IM them. They are good people.

Ha...sounds like I found a good place to get AR parts. Thanks for the feedback. Next question, does anyone have any experience with Stag or Sun Devil lowers? What are your impressions of each? Do you favor one over the other?

I have heard nothing bad about either.

WAIT! Do not buy from Rainier Arms! Unfortunately they knowingly help spread the
EBR disease. If you think you can handle this problem then by all means do buy
from them, you will have no problems!

He does have a point.....walking into THAT warehouse can get very costly...

Going directly to the warehouse can be expensive. Ask me how I know.

True. I never actually have seen a credit card melt, that is until that afternoon.

Amateurs.

You walk in and immediately grab the C02 fire extinguisher. Constant application of the fire extinguisher to your credit cards keeps them from melting.

They told me I have to bring my own fire extinguishers from now on, they're tired of having to pay for the refills every time I go there.

Go4broke,

Phenomenal long term/ heavy use upper, you are going to love it. I keep hearing about guys getting sub-moa groups with them as well, but I haven't tried myself.

Is this the thread where I get to say "DAMN YOU RAINIER ARMS"... I'm going ultra TactiCool with some pMags!

Alright, I went to Rainier and got a stripped Stag lower. You're all right, it would have been easy to spend a few dollars in there however, I only got the lower and one of these world famous Pmags to try out. Unfortunately I'm still trying to convince the wife that it's a good idea to build an AR. I've even tried to tell her I'm building it for her...that doesn't work.

Anyway, I agree, the service is great and I'll definately be back!

When I went to pick up my WA Mega lower, I picked it up, paid, and got the heck out! I didnt want to look toward the back of the warehouse

Hater....

That Noveske barrel is outstanding, and if I had to limit myself to one AR, I would use the N4 barrel without hesitation.

They have a very high level of pimp quality action. Aside from that, the ones that are pictured are prototype versions, and not available commercially. Magpul will be releasing Smoked and Clear TMAGs, but they are stating that they are dedicated for training purposes. They do not have the high bashability factor that standard PMAGs have.
