All lowers are not created equal. I've seen some that leave gaps and some that need a hammer to get the upper off.
None of those were DD, LWRC, etc.
Than that lower was out of spec, it happens. I have a lower that is in spec, but an upper from a big brand name had to hammered off of it. I ordered another big name upper and destroyed that POS big name brand upper for wasting my time. An AR was designed for combat, its spec allows for a certain amount of slop. A sloppy AR may shoot better than a tight fit ar, the accuracy is in the shooter and barrel. It has nothing to do with sloppy upper/lower fit.

Lately I've seen just as much hate for people with high end rifles as low end rifles. Some people like driving a Mercedes over a Hyundai, why does that bother people??
I dont own any Hyundais when it comes to rifles. It just pains me to watch people buy $300+ lowers because they think they are better. Id rather help them spend $300 more on a Krieger barrel for that AR and shoot circles around people that spend $300+ for a lower.
But thats me, keep buying those expensive lowers. They sure do look cool.

I have a stag lower.
Kind of what i was getting at. Just because a lower is a lower, it doesn't mean the quality control of the manufacturer is the same.
And I didn't mean to come off as argumentative, just throwing out why I think people move towards the "higher end" lowers.
