    Just be aware, they might be tooled by the same head company, but their tooling, tolerances and metallurgy may not be the same. Think of it like a 1994 Mexican Super Beetle. Same company, but each their own magical wonder...lol

    Great thread man. But also know that even within the same brand different lowers can be unique. All of my .556/.223 lowers are RRA and each one is a different grade with tooling marks and blemishes just slightly different from the others. It's only cosmetic though and all are consistent in their fit and form.
