When I picked it up, WOW! This is one cool looking lower with some cool features.
It has a threader pin for the bolt catch, which makes it simple to instal.
There's a threaded plug for the reat take down pin plunger spring.
It has a set screw that can be adjusted to put tension on the bottom of the rear stud of the upper, if needed.
I had to wait almost two weeks to get the matching upper
The upper and lower matched up great with almost no play.
Some think that Billet uppers are not worth the money and others clame that they are better because they are stronger.
Now I carried the M16A1 and the A2 all oer the world and never broke an upper or lower. Now I did bend a barrel and crack the stock on an A1, but that's another story.
If you need a reason for buying a Billet lower or upper, here is the best one. Their COOL!
I needed a barrel and my buddy over at Integral Arms sold me a Black Nitride carbine barrel in 223 Wylde 1/9 for $100.
I was going to use a Carbin fiber handguard, but changed my mind when it came in. I'm waiting on a 15 inch rail to come in now.
Now I need to find the buttstock I want.
I have already coated the bolt catch, safety lever, forward assist, dust cover and mag catch with Aluma Hyde II flat black, and it matches the gun great.
