are polymer 80 lowers any good?

Yes, polymer 80 lowers are quite good. Our customers have loved them for quite a few reasons: They're more affordable than metal lowers and jigs. They're easier to machine and build with. They're capable of taking some real abuse, as any good AR should.

In a pump action shotgun the recoil generated by these slugs can be unpleasant, but in the Vepr-12 with muzzle brake and recoil-reducing stock I found them very manageable to shoot. I did not test these in the first test. Of all slugs tested these shot the closest to point of aim at both 25 and 100 yards.

Despite my nitpicking I thoroughly enjoyed my time with Ruger's Mini-Thirty Tactical. It proved reliable and fairly accurate on the range and handled well. It carries easily and it's short length makes it fairly maneuverable. Recoil is mild and it hits where you aim.

In addition to complete rifles, CMMG also produces some excellent uppers and lowers in a variety of calibers. While many of these were less affordable than I expected, they are still decently high-quality and well-worth their price tags. However, it's their abundance of options which really gets me excited.

Aero isn't top tier quality, but they are solid and reliable and stand behind their stuff. I have an Aero lower and buffer tube. If I had to say my favorite thing about the lower it has got to be the roll mark doesn't molest my eyes and it was on sale. I would consider them high mid-level compared to the other brands.

Sergeant. On the contrary Tom, the barrels are quite good. Its funny how you will see a company that had a recall 15 years ago and say they are still bad. Ruger had more than one on their LCP and smith has had their fair share over the years as well.

The stock sights aren't as bad as some make it sound. Some folks put their Glocks through harder use than others. Some folks will snag their front sight on something and, being polymer, it can get a bit rough, but it's fairly easy to replace.

For the price, you can most certainly do better, but the guns are competitively fieldable. The main problem on the lower end line of their guns is their longevity and quality control. When compared to JG, G&G, and other budget brands, LT tends to fall short a bit. But again, out of the box, the guns are OK.

For the best insulating value and warmth-to-weight ratio, look for sleeping bags that are made with 100% duck or goose down. ... In general, 800 fill power and up is considered high quality down. Anything lower than that will be more cost effective, but won't have as good warmth-to-weight.

The FN 5.7x28mm single action pistol impressed me as an accurate, lightweight, soft recoil, high capacity, easy to rack gun with a great trigger press and short reset, after my range live fire. It was really fun to shoot the FN 5.7.

If you've made a firearm out of an “80%” lower there is no provision for adding a serial number yourself. The possession of any of these finished guns will be a felony. If you currently possess any 80% lowers each one is a Class C felony.

Thanks to its very high hardness (64-66 HRc compared to the average of 58-62 HRc), ZDP-189 can be ground thinner and sharpened less often. This makes for a great slicing knife and a perfect steel, in my opinion, for a regular-use, everyday-carry folder. ZDP-189 can tarnish, though not as easily as 3V.

Yes, they are worth it, but get an SSA for a general purpose rifle, the SSA-E is more of a precision trigger. If you aren't representing Jesus in a way that makes people want to hang out with you, you're doing it wrong. Worth it, yes.

Anderson Manufacturing Anderson Lowers are cheap ($42 for stripped and $120 for complete), they're forged 7075-T6, and they're often available. My accuracy testing lower uses the Anderson and Hiperfire trigger (Best AR-15 Triggers). I have used their lowers on countless builds and have had zero issues with them.

Most all new lowers are low shelf. I haven't had any issues with the dozen or so PSA lowers I have assembled.

The primeweld Tig 225ACDCP is a good welder for the price. I like it over my HTP 221 because I can see at a glance were my settings are. I like my 221 for the low amp capabilities and some of the other settings, but you have to go through the hole menu to set everything.
