so my friend never built an ar lower before and didnt want to wait for me so wht he did he broke the piece to attach the trigger guard. now what does he do with the lower? thats the answer i need and also the lower from spike tactical

Only option I know of is a Starks grip. It essentially has the trigger guard built in. Hope that helps.

Find a good welder and he'll remember to support the trigger guard lug next time he taps the roll pin in. I guess that's what he broke.

 

Will probably cost almost the price of the lower but it will be serviceable.

Wow! Good call!

yea that could work

i think the grip would be better than me trying to weld it. I weld for my career but hate to ruin the lower if it doesn't work

I've had loads of aluminum welded successfully as there are some really tallented welders out there. But you are absolutely right. Why mess around when that grip is available.

yea bc ill call a few gun smiths tom and just ask how much before i go buy the grip for him well he buys it lol

yup Starks will work, I had one for sale a while back... it's a good grip a little on the big side... there is another grip on the market with attached trigger but I forgot who makes it though...

 

 

Wow! Good call!

 

I've learned a little about AR's in my short time owning one haha

Yep,the Stark grip is the only thing that will save that lower. Next time he will learn to support the trigger guard ears better.

Ouch! Weld could work however a new lower might be best...

Let's say he gets a new lower what do you do with the old one?

The miad had a front strap available with a built in plastic trigger guard. No idea if it is still available.

Yep the standard MIAD kit comes with a trigger guard as part of the grip module, and it might be cheaper then the stark.

In light what all have said he shouldn't need a new lower. But if he wanted to dispose of it I would buy it cheap. It is very servicable.

Ouch! I install all roll pins with a pair of Knipex pliers. They are a little pricey but work great.

 

You can tig weld it back together no sweat. Just get a good competent welder.

ok thank you but i order the grip adn maybe in time if i dont like stark grip i will tig weld it for him
