I don't like the Anderson manufacturing parts I used (lower parts kit, buffer kit and bcg). Had parts fail within 12 shots. Had to email them since they aren't taking calls due to Corona virus.
Rear take down pin chipped, buffer retention pin cracked in half caused the buffer spring and buffer to go forward the buffer has a small chip in the middle.

These were brand new parts.

I was looking at Strike enhanced lower parts and not sure about which buffer and spring yet. What do you guys like that's not high end but not low end either?

I have used CMMG and PSA parts with out issue not to say they never have issue , just the ones I have used were fine.


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Rock River Arms sells high quality parts kits at a reasonable price. Do you really want low cost low quality parts if your life is depending on them?

Anderson is replacing the parts and they are on the way.

I'm still going to get other parts too.

Took the ar to my gun Smith buddy earlier, got it squared away. Gotta buy a different stock because the stock is too thick and doesn't allow clearance for ther charging handle if the stock is pushed all the way in.

I use a lot of PSA parts in my builds and they have all worked fine so far. Obviously not triggers and barrels but most of the rest is from PSA. Lowers I use 80%

Aero Precision, watch their site they have blemished parts on sale. My son bought a blemished lower, couldn’t find any blemish.
