    Where are the good buys on stripped AR15 recievers?

    Still seeing some good kit buys on everything but the stripped lower. Who has them cheap but quality?

    Good one!

    Sorry to be such a smartass but seriously there are no stripped lowers at a cheap price. They're like .22 LR ammo, first you can't find them and if you do they'll be 2x pre Sandyhook prices at the very least. Next year this time baring any other massacres we might get back to where "Cheap but Quality" would be a viable statement.

    Seriously, they're probably a year out IF there are no other serious gun ban efforts.

    Very seriously a year at least. Anybody look at Spikes Tactical web site? They were saying in Feb. that you might get a weapon ordered
    For new orders this item will be on backorder for an estimated 8 to 12 months
    This is on every rifle description page on their web site I do believe. http://www.spikestactical.com/new/z/ourcustomers.jpg Link to their message about back order / supply problems.

    well if nothing else the democraps have made sure we have a well armed populace.

    Think about it, before '94 most people I knew didn't hoard mags and ammo, now the montra is buy it cheap stack it deep.

    After BamBam's election there was a big buy on guns and gun related stuff. Not a peep out of him about gun control and a year later everyone was overstocked after catching up. I bought 5 AR receivers at $35.00 each. Here's hoping that a year from now we see those deals again.

    Crap, and I thought I got a good deal on my $80 receivers a year ago.

    I snagged a couple of those myself, plus a couple of the blemished ones they had.
