What are the prices you’ve seen and anyone sell them?
I want to go there and do a visit/tour or something and report back here, GT, and Arfcom. That’s assuming they accept. Seems they don’t really have a storefront and I haven’t heard much at all of them (which doesn’t mean much.) If they’re good then maybe it is time their reputation is heard.
Unfortunately, they don’t allow any tours/walkthroughs, etc. because it is just manufacturing there. It would have been nice but that’s okay. I’m still going to check in on their products - anyone have any opinions on pricing and quality?
I bought one a week or so ago - finish looks great, good rollmark and lettering, very cheap (local for me!) I’ll probably end up using these lowers again since I can get them cheap and nearby. The LPK has fit nicely into it. The only trouble I have is installing the roll pins without a punch. I got the bolt catch/release but I don’t want to break the trigger guard. :S No problem of the lower, just means I’m probably going to have to get a punch.
Not sure where to buy them but I bought one at a local gun show in Evansville, IN for $100 out the door price. I think the quality of finish is very good. I would say equal to Stag.
i’ve done five or six builds on DS lowers. they’re made by LAR. they work just fine.
one of them i just built is a bit sticky with trying to drop PMags free, but i’ll just let it wear in a bit with USGI mags and i’m sure it will free up after a bit of use.
all the others DS lowers i’ve assembled drop PMags free just fine tho
Local shop. Actually had it since right when everything blew up. Guy refused to jack up prices on stuff he already had in stock. I just wanted to ask since now I am building something off of it.
HI there … I have only built two AR’s so my experience is limited… First build was on a MEGA lower that I put in a RRA LPK a couple years ago …my second build was done in Nov08 on a DoubleStar lower and a DoubleStar LPK. It is went together beautifully and runs perfectly. The fit, finish and functionality is superb. All my mags fit and drop free. The MEGA was snug. Right now I swap my STAG upper back and forth. The DS LPK parts look different than the RRA parts …the DS trigger has a small flat stamped in the middle of both sides and also a stamped S and the hammer has the letter S stamped in to it …The selector snicks on and off nicer than the MEGA/RRA LPK build that has a couple thousand rounds through it… I may update this post later w/ close up pics od the DS LPK.
I bought two stripped DoubleStar lowers for $99 each just before the election, I didn’t have any trouble building them up and both drop pmags, I used a Stag and G&R LPK though.
