I've been looking a little here and there online at different lowers. I know even if I order one this second it will be a long while before I ever see it but I am in no rush. With that said I think I have decided to go with a stripped (maybe complete) lower from Rguns. I've read on here and googled their reputation, it seems they ship slow, have crappy attitudes and don't handle themselves or the business professionally, but I have also read almost no complaints about the quality of their parts. My question is about calibers. they offer their lowers in 5.56, 6.8, 7.62x39, .308, .243, .204 and .300 rem. what is the best choice? This will be an all around firearm. i will use it at the range, and possibly hunting. I want a round that is A) relatively inexpensive B)readily available (after this mess slows down) C)Has decent stopping power. I don't need to stop a truck, but I'd like to be able to drop a boar or deer at 75+ yards (as long as I can hit it).

Rguns AK lower?

shouldnt this be in the ar thread, not ak...

They make decet lowers and uppers for that matter, the fit and finish has been improved a lot over the last few years.

I have a Upper and parts on their way shortly, they are slow to ship but in their defece they did say it was going to take

at least 3-4 weeks so I cannot complain.

 

The only people I hear who say they are not good are the people who hate their customer service or bad attitude

or the AR snobs that spend $2500.00 + on each and every build.

First I must say that I've never handled a RGuns product before. However, I hope that their colored anodizing is more than the run-of-the-mill sort you see on regular aluminum parts. Cuz, that sort of anodizing won't stand up to firearm sort of wear.

So buying top shelf stuff automatically makes you a snob?

No saying stuff like, "My lower would never ware an upper with that name on it" kinda does when you

never have actually handled or used one. And to answer your question their fit and finish is very good.

I was just looking at a brand new one a member of another site just received and it's pretty damn nice.

The pictures on their site do not so their current production parts justice.

they may be snobs,, but that makes us AK knuckle dragger's

I'm not questioning the fit and finish. I'm questioning what stuff they used to finish the receivers with.

Im proud to be one!

They use Type III anodizing and or Nickle Boron if you like.

 

If you know anything about either process they you will know that Type III on aliminum holds up very well and is able to be dyed for a richer darker color instead of the standard. Nicle Boron is like making it into a steel door, not going to scratch.

 

It's the same exact finish as this receiver which I have and can tell you it blows any spikes or Smith and wesson finish I have away looks wise. Will the Rguns do the same not sure but from the pictures of my firends it should, and it's extremely durable.

Industrial hard coating is a Type III anodizing process, utilizing low bath temperatures, high current density, special electrolytes, and agitation to form a very hard, thick coating of aluminum oxide that actually penetrates the surface of the base metal. In fact, in true hard coat anodizing, fully half the thickness of the protective aluminum oxide layer penetrates beneath the surface, with the other half building up above the surface.

I have their 5.56 ar upper in the dark earth and black looks fantastic haven used it yet im waiting on a lower. I only got an email confirming my purchase and had it a week later.
