going to build my first AR, plan on building the lower for now and gather parts for upper later. Has anyone used a Anderson MFG lower, are they good? found them for $109 shipped. or any others in that price range that you suggest? thanks!

I dont have any experiance with Andersons, but personally I would buy one of these from AIM while they are still in stock http://www.aimsurplus.com/product.aspx?item=F1SASLGEN2&name=Surplus+Arms+%26+Ammo+GEN+2+SA15+Lowers&groupid=11 I have the gen 1 version of this and they are nice lowers

Midwestpx a forum vendor has some lowers in stock check his site

I have seen those and was considering it, theyve been in stock for weeks now. after shipping it works out to be about $109 too... Are they good quality though?

already checked there, only has the NFA lowers (polymer)

I've had some Anderson's come through as transfers.  Not impressed.  Poorly packaged for one (came direct from Anderson) and they also left a couple burrs on the lowers.

thank you, i hope to get the parts kit, mags, etc from you but im trying to find a quality lower (alum.) for around $100 first.

I used one of those Surplus and Ammo SA15 lowers for a build and I was very happy with it. Better fit than a Spikes lower that I built before.

Keep an eye at AIM for a Spikes lower: http://www.aimsurplus.com/product.aspx?item=F1STSL

 

They are decent quality, come in stock often (use the Notify Me button), and are affordable.

Monmouth Arms had some spikes lowers. Check with him.

Rainier Arms has Mega lowers for $124.00 would buy this before considering what your looking at.

That's pre-panic pricing for those.  MAP on the M0200 is $124 while MSRP is $130 and that's the first time since Sandy Hook that I've seen a Mega lower for less than MSRP.  Rainier is also good people.  I've met John Hwang and many of the guys that work there and have nothing but good things to say about them.

Wideners has LBR lowers in stock and shipping per the email i got last night... $99
