+1 from me. Aesthetically the slope up to the front is much more pleasing than the typical 180 look. Possibly even a better design du to allowing you to have a higher grip on the mag when you reload?
As Wolverine is not selling this, please speak with their partner, Spectre LTD, directly; see the black rifle thread for their contact info, as it is not listed on the site yet -> https://www.canadiangunnutz.com/forum/showthread.php/2175445-Spectre-LTD-Spec-180-Lower-Info-and-Ongoing-Feedback-for-WK-MCR-AR180?p=18175398&viewfull=1#post18175398

Idk from what i gather, all people are suggesting is that they address the wildly unpopular angle of the magwell. People have been requesting that for yrs, seems like businesses would like free customer feedback. I dont think anyone is being rude, or implying they are totally unsatisfied with this new product. Im buying one when theyre available, but i too would prefer a normal magwell angle.
Wolverine deals in whole rifles, but if you contact either of their manufacturing partners, Spectre LTD or Xtreme Shooting Center, I'm sure they would be happy to provide a completed upper for the appropriate recompense. I suspect Wolverine may still get a slice of the sale, since they commissioned to MCR design, but that's between them and their partners; if that's the case, you would still be supporting Wolverine and their efforts on behalf of the industry.

From what they've posted elsewhere and in the email I received, Spectre certainly sounds ready to ship these. Really looking forward to an email from Wolverine, hopefully tomorrow? *nudge* *nudge*

Exactly my thoughts as well. I did however receive an email from one of the sales reps at wolverine this am (Monday am) replying to a separate email of mine from July 15th. In my email from the 15th I just made a general inquiry of these lowers, the response I got Monday am was:
“ At this moment I can confirm that they have made one and that we are planning to retail it. We have not had a chance to sit down with the guys at Spectre
And discuss the pricing, so at the moment I am not sure when it is coming my way and I am not sure on the rice that it will go for.
It is something that they have been working on, on their own and we were just informed last week.
If there is anything I can help you with, please let me know!”
So I dunno. Someone just take my money and ship me a piece of metal haha
If that's the case, I can understand why Wolverine is being slow on releasing the details. They've pretty much vowed to swear off pre-orders after issues selling a certain rifle, so they probably would rather sell this on a per item basis as Spectre LTD makes them. Once the new lower is battle-tested, it may become the default MCR lower, but only after a good period of testing, and after existing supplies of first gen lowers are exhausted. Until then, they will likely be sold piece-meal, probably being sold out the moment an individual production run hits the site.
