    Swiss Arms 553-US Lower

    What is the availability of these lowers? The 2011 catalogue says they would be available by the summer.

    I like the idea of a real Swiss made lower that can take AR mags and still maintains the folding stock.

    We already have them on "order", but available 2012 probably means 2013.

    The catalogue said available summer 2011 is that wrong? I understand there can be a delay but two years is a bit ridiculous. What does your Swiss Arms rep say?

    Probably says "Don't bug me Canada, we have real customers to take care of"

    You would think they would love the Canadian market, seeing as how we still seem to pay at least a 25% premium on what our neighbours to the south pay with our dollar at par or better. sigh.

    Gun looks very cool though.

    What's the difference between this lower unit and the classic green? (other than the AR mag adaptor)

    probably nothing other than it being milled aluminum

    To all,

    This thread is about Swiss Arms, not NEA.

    Please keep on topic.

    Cheers,

    The one I looked at last March was a unique system, but the pictures coming now all show an AR style bolt release.
