So I'm in the Baton Rouge area. I did some searching, pickings are slim.
Jims doesn't have any, and list Anderson at $80 for their lowest price. Bass Pro/Cabelas has Anderson @ $70.

I checked Gun Genie, it appears I could get an ATI Milsport (7075 Aluminum, NOT polymer) for $55. I'm damn leery of that brand, I don't think I've ever heard anything good about them, and the reviews of their lowers aren't impressive.

I know, it's cheaper to buy online... but it isn't. I haven't found a decent FFL that wants to charge less than $20 per transfer.

At one point, Bayou Pawn used to sell PSA stuff without a transfer fee, but they got really pissy about it after a couple times. I think they quit, otherwise I would use them without hesitation.

Check BJ pawn, I am just not sure what they have right now but they are usually fairly priced and use to stock decent lowers.

Some Atwoods stores have Anderson stripped lowers for like $50.

It's a great deal, especially when you factor in no shipping/transfer fee.

Looks like they are out of business.

I figured I would end up back there. I knew Sam and Gabe before they showed up over there.

I picked up some random lower from them awhile back, it works fine. They had it marked to $60 or so.

I don't need expensive, I really just want to find something with holes in the right place, and pick up a couple/three more.
