They were $300 all weekend. I ordered mine yesterday. I had already ordered two lowers to build both an M4gery and an A2clone in 20" down the road, but since this was cheaper than any kit out there, i had to grab one.

I don't need another AR, but for $300, and the uncertainty on the horizon yet again......why not?

I think a $300 AR is definitely a sign of a saturated market. At the height of the most recent panic, that same rifle would have probably fetched $1k easily.

Weight= 4.000
If accurate, the rifle may have a polymer lower receiver. I did not see it specified otherwise.
Anyone have different information?

Anyone have different information? Sold out as of this AM, 12 NOV 2018- 1030 The rifle pictured; is not a polymer lower. In the description it does not give the specs of the Lower Receiver. Not a point of argument but I would say that you are really splitting hairs when you get down to shipping cost, tax and dealer fees. Even if you get a break on any of these fees, you can still put together a similar rifle at this price point. We all have a few Anderson lowers stashed.

Regardless of price point or stock status, I was curious only about the lower receiver material.
