Default Plum Crazy AR-15 Lowers

Do you have one and what do you think about them? $99.00 is cheap for a complete lower.

I have one, my brother has one and several of my friends have them. I have a dedicated .22 upper on mine right now but have also used it with 5.56 and 6.8 uppers. Everyone else is using them with 5.56 uppers. We have at least a few thousand rounds total through them. None of us has had any problems and the fire control parts, though plastic, make for a better trigger pull than most standard AR's I've had. In my experience, they're a heck of a deal for $99.

Several of us did a group buy on them and have had no problems so far.I like mine but have not tried it yet(saving for a .22upper) but five so far are on .223 uppers and are running well with no problems. So far so good.......YMMV
