Check out the ATI Omni Polymer AR Lower Receiver & Buttstock Assembly. It is 100% AMERICAN MADE (not from China or the Philippines!) retails at under $200 and includes the Lower, a sliding 6 position carbine buttstock, buffer & tube, AND a complete lower parts kit. We have fitted Chiappa, Daniel Defense, Colt (MilSpec), Armalite, High Standard, Rock Rock and more style uppers on ours and they fit. They are tight and you need to tap the rear pin in the first 10-15 times and then they ease into a fit you can press in by thumb alone. Mine still needs a poly punch to take down but it is TIGHT on the upper and shoots great. It fits Thermold type and metal mags. (I don't have any MagPuls to try yet.)
These are in stock at The Gun Centre, General Gun In Windsor, and Lanz Shooting Supplies with more dealers coming online.
As a bonus we are importing some economy AMERICAN MADE complete uppers and will be retailing a complete US MADE AR 16" rifle.. We also have established a relationship with High Standard and have got three sizes of their cold forged barrels coming in in complete uppers and will be retailing a complete US MADE with HAMMER FORGED BARREL Ar 10.5", 14.5" and 16" rifle. Call your dealer now. We put the High Standard on the range a week ago and shot groups at 50m that went under a nickel and some under a dime. These guns shoot!
As a bonus anyone buying an Omni Lower Assembly can get their choice of upper for just the price difference. We look out for our customers so get your lower now and then choose your upper. Add an EO Tech or Leupold sight and grab some mags for a whole load of fun at about the same price as a bare AR from some other places. Have an AR CHRISTMAS!
