Well Nimble,
I have been looking around for a stripped lower for quite some time. It seems all the gun shops are using their stripped lowers to build ARs and sell them for $2,500.

Good Luck finding one, and if you do please link it on the Outdoor Board like you have done in the past.

Look in the long stickied thread top of page. Last 10 or so pages is a link that might still have some in stock.

Are lower parts kits hard to come by too? I assume this is a dumb question.

Essential Arms

Good

If its says J-15 in raised letters is Pre clinton ban and very expensive if you can find one. Depending on Condition could be 400-$900.00 Also its cast Aluminum

The Post Clinton bans are better manufactured IMO as they are forged...just not as collectible

OR So I have read

I pieced my lowers together this month. Finally got the stocks and buffer tubes ordered today.

I built 3 for less than $900

They have magpul, spikes, palmetto state, and Bravo Company parts.

I posted links for most of the stuff a couple of nights ago. Most of the parts are backordered. I think you just have to have time to look and be on the sites at the right times.
