Tempting.

Great deal but it has a 30 round mag that PA could refuse to ship to the PRNJ and the rifle has an A2 birdcage that the FFL doing the transfer would have to replace, so your FFL would need to have a gunsmith.  Between the transfer fee and compliance work this may not be so worth doing in the end.

that makes no sense as you'd have this with any rifle you buy or build

I'm not buying but it's a smoking deal on a rig that gets' good reviews (except the bolt)

Not really!  I could buy the stripped Anderson lower for about $60 from my LGS with no $70 transfer fee. Then order a lower parts kit, muzzle brake, stock and complete upper for about $400. I can do my own compliance work and have a crappy but custom AR15 for less than $500.

I would rather buy once and cry once and have a quality rifle that I can trust not to fail on me at the wrong time!:)

Interesting. You don't need a transfer fee for lowers?

Not if I buy it from my LGS.  My LGS charges $70 plus NICS for a transfer so I would avoid the transfer fee just to buy it from him.

Dumb question, as I've never built a lower. 

Buying this WOULD come with the transfer fee correct? 

Is there one transfer fee per receiver? 

Depends on the FFL. Some lump it all in on same transfer, some reduce fees, some charge same each transfer. Refer to your FFL of choice.
