$35 Lowers? Any good?

[GSXRK5]

At Vulcan Armament. Says they're made of Carbon/Aramid? I've never heard of the company nor do i know anything about the material used. Anyone heard of them or know any info on them? Just seem like a Poly lower like Plum Crazy or w/e the name is? Wanted to know if anyone knows anything about them?

I've never used one, but I know there are some people that use the Polymer ones and say they're just as good. But no first hand experience.

Those lowers have a very bad reputation. They are probably just getting rid of their inventory because sales are so bad.



after 2 rounds according to the owner:

While ive had no personal experience i have heard rumors about heat build up affecting the polymer lowers. chipping, and pin walk.

That being said, a polymer lower requires a polymer hammer, and a special bolt group.

It sounds like more trouble than it is worth, you can easily get an standard metal receiver for under a hundred, and usually less through the group buys that CJ organizes.

No worries CJ a little gorilla glue and its mended!

On their site they even have a Polymer upper. I've never heard of them so just wanted some info. And i'm for sure gonna join in on the GB as i did last time was just curious. End of the thread should have been with the pictures. Thanks CJ.

I know people with .50 uppers on plum crazy lowers who have had no problems

But vulcan is known for poor quality

why cheap out on something like that on a .50 build?its a matter of a few more bucks. I wouldn't buy plum crazy... the name works for a reason...

[YALE]

There's a new GB on the way?

because they already had the lower, to show the lower would work, and if it broke it was easy to replace

You can get a New Frontier Armory complete polymer lower for $99.99. I don't know jack about them though.
