yeah - the issue is the area around the takedown pins. not sure yet how durable that is. probably at least needs a metal insert. a better bet is to buy an 80% lower and finish machining it.

the problem right now is everything id flying out of the stores, and for outrageous prices.

*Sad Face* At least this gives me a chance to save up the money for the parts and other accessories.
