I get their daily deals thing in the email about every days and they seem to have complete lowers uppers or 3pk stripped lowers really cheap every few days. I mean as low as $79.99 for ones with cosmetic blems. I know it has to be sent to and FFL and all but just wanted to see if anyone here has bought thought them online before are there any hidden fee type deals besides the transfer fee at the shop ? Like do they have some crazy shipping/taxes or anything like that ?
Thanks smile

Last ones I bought were blems, 3 stripped for $99, and I THINK free shopping.

Never saw a difference between blems and non blems

I have bought several Vortex scopes and a bunch of mags from them. Occasionally they have the best price on ammo.

It's been pretty easy

Yeah, I NEVER order from them if I'm in a hurry, but they have gotten MUCH faster recently.

I’ve had several builders and others that told me several manufacturers to stay away from and they are the first mentioned by all. I guess for plinking they’d be ok, they all said if you want something reliable and you plan on trusting your life with, then avoid at all cost.

Wow that's surprising, I've had nothing but good luck with them and between my brother and myself we've ordered quite a bit. I've never been able find the "blem" on the blem uppers or lowers. I have to say they're a pretty good outfit

Are they selling higher priced alternatives?

Just saying....

Many, many thousands of rounds thru them.
No issues.

No, they were just stating mass produced companies to stay away from.

I go by their store a few times per year but have never stopped to visit. Maybe I will on my next trip to SC. Always with the wife. I can tell her I am shopping for something our grandson needs.

only done one lower from them, you know exactly what you will be changed before you click purchase after putting in your credit card.

expect around a week to two weeks before you get your goods , so if you send it to the FFL make sure you call and let them know it is coming
also let them know if they are going to have to hold on to it till you get off the boat and they are cool with that.


uppers just come to your house or whatever address you used

even when I ordered an upper and lower on the same order only the lower went to my FFL

I ordered a 3 pack of lowers from another online retailer , it confused them a bit that I had my name one the order and wife's name on the payment it held up my order until I called and explained it to them and my dealer then it was OK. but they understood when I said wife told me put it on her card.


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

I've bought a few no issues.
One was a s&%3w cancer special edition with a portion going to St Judes. Bought it instantly because of my daughter beating cancer at age 5. Nearly finished building my daughter's grendel. She wanted purple accessories on it. Looking for a scope (black not purple) and a sling. Sure is a fun but not cheap caliber. Cheapest ammo I've found was around 55 for 20

You know I really just wanna sit down and level with some some people. Like honestly how many shooters are going to shoot enough so that their going to experience legit issues ? Like I sorry the average AR-15 owner is probably burning though like 100rd max a year and half of them probably can't hit a man sized target at the 100yd mark.
I see these elites on FB all the talk down talking anything that isn't a $1500+ build and they will rattle off crap about stuff going bad after so many thousands of rounds or stuff falling apart after getting tossed in the Mudd's and dragged behind atv's full auto fire and I'm just sorry but how many people actually do that crap ? Like I'm not trying to be rude but seriously . It's even better when the same people wanna end up being the " I only shoot 20rd a year " or " I don't waste ammo shooting paper" types like ok bro take your $2500 range toy safe princess and go LARP around in full kit so get some pictures for fb so you can flex on the poors smirk gimme a friggen break. Your not a navy seal and honestly I'm way more terrified of billy bob who can casually pop me from 300m out with his bear creek coyote calling rig or at least keep me ducking with decent area fire then Tyler's with his $5000 knights armament whatever who thinks he's gonna be able to CQB an entire build by himself even though he can barley do a burpee.
About as bad people who complain about new calibers and ammo availability even though they never shoot more then 10-20 rounds a year tired
Like honestly I could probably take some random no name parts slap then together make it run half decent give it comes cool dude bro name say it's all mil spec and half these yahoos will buy it for $2500 if anyi semi competent sounding shows it to them mad

Like I got some friends who do need that kinda standard of gear because they run theirs day in day out hot heavy and hard but I'm pretty confident in saying I feel their only like 20% of most civilian AR owners.

Rant over I promise that wasn't directed at anyone personally

Nothing but good experiences from them. They don’t ship next day, but you get good quality and reasonable prices. If your looking for a 308 ar there third gen would be tough to beat. My gen 1 has accounted for a lot of dead pigs. I had to add an adjustable gas block to shoot suppresses on my gen1. The new ones are ready out of the box, have decent triggers and can be had with sixteen inch barrels now.

I’ve got upper from them that swap around. It came to house in short delivery time without issue. Chamber was fairly rough but it smoothed out. Have no real complaints but I’ll bet that only have under 7-800 rounds thru it It has a cheap fixed power 2x scope. It’s basically a 3-4 moa shooter but I didn’t buy it to be long range varmint rig either

You're fired up! I've built a couple using Aero Precision components. I recommend checking out their site. Wait for a holiday and they mark prices down quite a bit. Very reasonably priced.
