    Default Plum Crazy Lower Rec?

    Anyone else seen this? Some guy claiming to sell polymer lower receivers, complete for $99 shipped.

    I ordered one just for giggles. Going to test it out mid-march with 1000 rounds of .223 and a few thousand .22lr and general abuse a rifle sees when camped out at the range for a week.

    Was supposed to ship out this past tues, was told "buffer tube problems" and would ship out this coming tuesday. Starting to get suspicious but hey - can always cancel my order and get a new lower rec made of aluminum for $225 shipped w/transfer fees.

    Not sure I've heard of that one PV, post pics when it arrives.

    Thank you Mtn Man. That's exactly it.

    I'm suspicious of a lot of things about this lower, but again, too good a deal not to give it a try. I'll give a full range report around Mar 20th, supposing this isn't just vaporware.

    Was thinking about these the other night...they'd probably be good for a dedicated .22 upper, but I wouldnt trust them to the recoil of a centerfire cartridge...
