Several years ago I would have agreed with you. Times change and manufacturers improve. UTG has stepped up the quality of their stuff. Sure they still sell super cheap stuff, but if it's sold for the AR line of guns, it's proven durable.

Case in point:


This rifle has a UTG Super Slim Pro free float forearm on it. It has 3,066 rounds through it. It has seen some hard use. In all of that, the forearm has never come loose or given me any problems what-so-ever.

Are there better forearms? Maybe, but this one has proven its metal to me.

Kapz,
Take your time with this decision. The common phrase, "buy once, cry once" applies here. If you spend $90 on a drop in forearm, you'll have a forearm that is only a little better than what you have now. Chances are you'll use it for a while and end up replacing it again. Spend $180 on a Super Slim Pro free float forearm and you'll dramatically improve the function.
