It has gone through the roof over the past year. I use to see them for half the price as a billet aluminum lower and now they are more expansive.





Why the hate? The polymer used by a good manufacturer is a better grade polymer and goes through more rigorous testing then the polymers used by some of the top selling polymer handguns (like Glocks and XDs).
Because they will still break. Handguns are not subjected to the type of impact/ resistance/ and continued forces that the Buffer tube subjects on the lower receiver. As it is the most Fragile part of the design.

Will they break on shot 15? NO? But they will ultimately break.

people are really going overboard on the ammo purchases.

If only I had known that the cheapest and most common ammo would be out of stock because of lunatics, power grabbing jerkoffs, and panic buyers...

Freaking idiots.

That thing is going nowhere. Even that idiot Pelosi says it's not making it out of the Senate.

I've got some XM855 still. The ranges won't let us shoot it there though. I want some XM193. Or some .22lr. Or mags. Or the Sig pistol I want. This is what I get for saving my money for the things I want to buy and being responsible, instead of putting it all on credit and buying it when I want it. Lesson learned!
