2011 DFWmustangs.net lower group buy

[KBScobravert]

I think we should start.

I will be ready anytime after the 24th of June.

CJ my 10/5 were in a bag when i got there. I counted the lowers for sure 100%. I want to say for certain I counted the kits also but I can't. When DiAnn gets home next week I will have her check. I hope the two kits that are unaccounted for come up first thoug; I am not looking forward to her reaction to TEN NEW lowers.

CJ - I am home on an emergency and checked my sack of hidden lowers/LPKs; 10 lowers and 5 LPKs as ordered. The missing two are not with me.

quick question, i'm guessing these lowers are the .156" small hole flavor right?

from midwayusa:

AR-15 Hammer and Trigger Pin Dimensions:
+Some Colt® AR type rifles have been manufactured with hammer and trigger pins and holes which are approximately .176" in diameter. These are referred to as "large pin" Colts. This was done to eliminate the chances of someone putting M16 fire control parts into an AR receiver. This is not found in all Colt models, just some.
+All other AR type rifle manufacturers have stayed with the .156" diameter hammer and trigger pins and holes, or "small pin" which is the same spec used in all military M16 rifles.
+Measure your pins or the holes in your lower receiver to determine if you have a "small" or "large" hole Colt® AR

We were missing LPK's not lowers.

I just wanted to put out there again. My count was right on my 5.

Who still needs the 2 missing LPKs?

from midwayusa:

yeah those are only very early colt SP1 slab side lowers that fall into that category, just the fact they once existed 40 years ago has made it a major headache to continually see concern over it.


We have 2 lowers remaining for 'tex' from THF, still hasn't picked them up, but that's all that's left. Jeff took care of the LPK shortage by just ordering another 2.

AS soon as those are picked up we should be ready for the next round of GB's right? Did we ever decide if it would be uppers, BCG's, barrels, or a combo of uppers and BCG?

I am just pullin CJ's chain.

Converts the gun from DI to piston to operate the bolt. The moving parts run cooler and cleaner but the trade off is the expense to convert and the limit on handguards that will fit.
