WTB: S&W M&P 15 lower reciever

[flatblack86]

I am starting to build me an AR and I want to buy a M&P 15 lower. I would prefer it to be stripped, but I'll consider complete if it has an adjustable stock with a nice trigger set up. Thanks, Dustin.

your best bet is to buy the base model and go from there, if not I highly recommend the T model if you can find one.

Don't the M&P lowers have issues with some mags? Maybe that was a while ago, but I stayed away from the M&P lower because I had read some bad stuff. Their uppers are really nice though, I perched one on my RRA NM lower and love the combo.

Goodluck finding any brand like this.

They did at first when SW took them inhouse, mine predates that and it was manufacture by Stag. SW took care of that issue. Just take a Pmag with you and do a fit test.

I will tell you that I have physically tried both a RRA and a POF in which USGI mags and Pmags do not drop free. My SW practically shoots them out the magwell, as y EA lower does. As I attempted to call POF today for that lower I was going to purchase from Kemo, they dont answer the phone, nor return calls, thus I will save my money and just buy another manufacture billet lower for my SBR build.

Good info thanks. I wanted the RRA 2-stage trigger anyway, but now I know for future reference. I would buy another M&P-15 in a heartbeat. A lot of gun for the money.

And now that I think about it, my mags were tight in the RRA at first. After two range trips they all come flying out just fine. Guess it's just a break-in thing.

Custom Gun Works in Lafayette had a couple S&W stripped lowers in stock yesterday. I think they were $225.
