AR-15 thoughts..

Post by fusion94 »

I might have walked into a pretty decent horse trade. Was wondering if anyone had any experience with either the upper or lower receiver listed here.

Spikes Lower
DPMS LPK
Armalite 5.56 Upper
Eotech 552.A65/1
Magpul MOE Buttstock
Magpul MOE Pistol Grip

thanks

Free...essentially, which is why my interest was piqued. Guy wants to trade one of my Macbook Pro laptops for it. The big deal is that it is in fact CA legal in it's current configuration but I'm not familiar with the lower receiver at all.

Have I mentioned that I hate the gun laws here?

Fair enough, I'm here primarily because my wife is from here and all the highest paying software engineering jobs are located here in the People's Republic.

why are you posting this on multiple SOF oriented boards? you are probably overlapping a lot of your audience. can you not do research on your own? there's a whole internet out there.

Actually I have done the research on my own, unfortunately internet reviewers aren't necessarily objective. I did post this in one other forum and I'm searching for individuals that I respect due to their credentials that have experience with these components.

If this isn't you then please ignore. After reading through all the stickies and rules I am fairly certain that I am posing a question that is relevant and appropriate. I would not post this question in forums/sites related to College Football for example.
