$84.99 for a complete lower regardless of how bare bones is a good deal. Good on them!

I’ve never been into plastic ar lowers, but for a full lower at $90, I think I’ll check them out.

Ahhh, ok.

I guess that would be a more secure alternative then a copy of your CAC card or your retiree ID card, of which I am pretty sure you are not supposed to make copies of.

I've been trying to get one of these for a while, their website is down for processing requests. Supposedly, they will send me an email when it's back up, but I haven't been holding my breath.

Just tried again at this link: https://www.vets.gov/veteran-id-card/ and got a different message. They now say they'll send instructions to your email on how to proceed instead of we'll get back to you when we can. Haven't received any instructions yet though.

We've got an AR with a Plum Crazy polymer lower. They did a 10k round test and had no failures. I figure we'll probably never shoot that many out of it, so I'm unconcerned.

Thanks but no thanks for myself. I understand what their plan is I suppose. But I am not interested in a Polymer lower. Now, if you do not have an AR-15 and this is the best and most economical way to get there, then good on you. I am all for it. Hats off to this company for a least looking out.

Sounds like they're just marketing cheap poly lowers to vets with a scammy story about how patriotic they are. Hard pass.
