NJGF gets first dibs on this deal

[MidwestPX 172]

In the next week or two, I'll be making a very good deal available on a house branded billet AR15 lower. It's not the same design as the current PX15 lower and I'll have pictures next week to post. It will, however, have the same features as what is currently available meaning a threaded bolt catch pin, threaded takedown detent channel, and a tensioning screw between upper and lower. The deal will be:

 

*Billet 7075 PX15 lower

*PX LTG LPK

*ALG Defense ACT trigger

*PX milspec 6-pos OR A2 rifle length receiver extension kit

 

$199.95

 

Before I release this deal to the rest of the internet, I'm giving NJGF members first notice. If you're interested, post and subscribe to this thread. Because supply lines on some of the components of the bundled parts is spotty, I'll only be releasing 20-25 at a time.

Thankx Ty for the heads up.  It's refreshing to have a vendor putting the customer's interests first.  You always seem to find a way to have that "value added"  service.

I'll get in line for a look...

 

I do have 3 of your other billet lowers --  curious as to what the changes will be and why you made changes

 

Still waiting on billet uppers from you

These lowers were originally supposed to be delivered in April/May...of 2013. I had two machine shops making lowers on variances for me just to try to get product. The good news is, since they took so long, I had a lot of input in the design whereas the lowers that are currently available was a "take it or leave it" proposition as far as design went.

[Heavyopp 167]

So which one will become the house lower??  

 

How about the upper --  Which lower will that match?

 

I'm certainly curious to see the design -- I did have an issue with the current lower with a very specific application

 

Maybe the 3 I have will become collectors items

That's a good question and I don't know. I'll let sales dictate it. As for uppers, both are designed to match forged uppers. I'm still talking to the machine shop about a billet upper and honestly, I'm not very enthused by the design direction. I'll get pics of the "other" lower up as soon as my photographer gets them to me.

 

Also, what was the issue you had?

[Heavyopp 167]

Charging handle dragged on the upper causing failure to feed 1st round from mag --  This is on a dedicated .22 rimfire upper

 

Upper receiver is a DPMS "round" type receiver -- no forward assist -- no shell deflector --  It's a little thick as far as uppers go

 

I've run this upper on a stag lower for over a year -- never a problem --  The stag has a flat spot where the extension tube threads into the lower -- just under the charging handle 

 

The billet lower is round there leaving a small lip for the charging handle to get caught and hold up the feeding process --  It's where the upper transitions to the lower just under the charging handle

 

It is very pronounced on this specific upper -- I tried mating your lower to a Larue stealth upper I have laying around and it is much less of a problem

 

 most likely won't cause feed issues in a non - dedicated .22 rimfire

 

I'll get you pictures if you want...

Yeah, if you could, I'd like to forward them on to the machine shop so they can make the necessary changes.

God damnit Ty. You're gonna make me build another rifle aren't you! The gf is gonna have your head.

[gleninjersey 2,139]

Sounds very interesting. My father inlaw is talking about getting his 1st AR. He is looking at Smith & Wesson MPs. Will try to talk him into starting a build instead using this!

I'm not trying to be picky at all but just curious if by any chance you will be offering these without the bullet-style logos on for safe/semi/auto? Just regular logos like "safe" and "semi"?

[DeerSlayer 241]

I'm calling tomorrow! Should I ask for anyone in specific? Or does everyone that answers the phone know about this particular deal?

In my experience retailing lowers, the market seems to prefer the pictograms over words which is why I went that route.

I called and left a message, the message said your open till 5 today. Hopefully I didn't call too late to order today, my fault for not calling earlier.

Thanks for the order!

 

I think I'm going to open up the deal to the rest of the internet over the weekend. Supply lines on the bundle components seem to be firming up so we shouldn't run out.

[DeerSlayer 241]

I got a call back before 5pm, I forgot there is a time zone difference. I ordered it with the LPK and mill spec buffer. Pleasure to deal with easy order, thanks again!

[MidwestPX 172]

Picked up my lower today was waiting to grab a handgun I ordered as well to do both NICS checks at once. Beautiful lower and LPK. Shipping was super fast! Excellent product at a great price! Should make a nice .300 blackout in the near future. If anyone is looking for a billet lower, this is the one to get!

Typically same or next day to ship if we already have the receiving dealer's FFL on file. Then depending on method, 2-3 business days from here to NJ.

Thanks Ty,

Just placed the order and asked Wittaker for his email.
