Dlask - how do they rate?

I've had some really good experiences and some mediocre. 1911 magwell came w some sharp edges and a cheap screw but recently bought a grizzly front rail and it works great with good finishing...
 
I'd rather buy an Aero, DD, Colt, FN, or whatever mass manufacture lower. The difference in machining methodology makes them (in my eyes) a superior product.
 
...but it won't take a sear, without a milling machine, and trade skills that make it a moot point ayway. Also, this sh...er....stuff has only become an issue lately, there are hundreds of true sear compatible lowers out there, simply because the RCMP hadn't made up the FA boogeyman as a BS way of trying to take guns "off the streets" when they were imported. I can think of 3 brands off the top of my head that have sear compatible lowers mingled in with other production. All of which would be much easier to make into prohibited firearms. Which would, of course, result in jail for the person caught with them, because it's already illegal to make/modify/possess a select fire weapon.

I'm sorry but what are you talking about? It looks like the only thing missing is the hole for the sear pin. That can easily be done with some calipers and a drill press.

I be curious about these other lowers you mentioned. I've certainly never seen it. Doesn't mean they aren't out there but US manufacturers tend to avoid getting on the ATFs radar.

Yeah, it is the width of a sear... but still ridiculous it'd be prohib over it.
 
dlask is great!, i remember some guy bought a used dlask 1911, and had some issues, and they fixed it up for free. got a problem? just call them...

5/5 stars from me!

Sorry but that's weird
5/5 would be not having any issues at all and never having the trouble to call them up for their sh!t job

Offering cross owner warranty is not something that is spectacular

See that lug on the right hand side of the pocket - the one that covers the end of the selector and blocks the 'leg' on the sear that engages the cup on the selector? You need to machine that for clearance if you want to go to jail. That's a milling operation, and if you don't do it right, you have a useless lower. Oh yeah, and it's easier to eff up than it is to do right, THEN you have to drill that hole in the exactly correct spot, and in exactly the right orientation, or your gun is an out of time, non-firing prohib. Cool, huh?

It really isn't that easy. If it was, Surrey would be awash with full auto AR's. Incidentally, the receiver on the left wouldn't accept a DIAS, the one on the right possibly could. Not easily, but certainly closer than the other one - look at the shelf height.

Arms East Stag has a $839 flash sale for everything you will need for a 10" build with except a stripped Lower, however stripped Stag Arms lower is on sale on Canadian Tactical Cowboy Supplies for $139, it would be really unwise to not take advantage of this opportunity.

Uhhhm a auto sear has the leg on the opposite side of the receiver as the un machined lug.

Exactly, the only thing missing is the sear pin hole. Which NFG has continually insisted is some sort of dark art that only a tool and die maker with a full blown machine shop could manage.

I can see why the RCMP might have an issue with that. No US manufacturer does anything remotely close. They all require further milling of the pocket.

I think a RPAL holder should still be trusted to not drill the hole and install a M16 parts kit. But I do understand the logic behind it.

Yup, just pulled the parts out of the drawer - I was wrong. The leg goes the other way. Those are 2 parts I've not ever used, had to open the bag to check them. I'm not however, saying it's a dark art, I'm saying if you do it wrong, it'll stop the gun from firing FA, because the location of the hole and its orientation is critical to the timing of the hammer release.

PS - the NEA is a low shelf, so neither is particularly squeaky clean.

The rcmp bulletin on all of it has no issue with low shelf. It's all about width.
 
Doh!

RCMP guys are morons IMHO.
It is much easier to fabricate DIAS and hide it after use than drill holes for GI auto sear in a wide open lower.
So, they suppose to ban lower shelf lowers.
 
Lighting link or DIAS nothing is gonna work without full auto FCG. So better regulate such FCGs same like in USA.

Wrong, lighting link requires a full semi auto fcg and bcg. Without the semi bcg it will not work. That means it's only fully auto when it's installed no select fire.
