Yes, I understand that the lower doesn’t add or subtract from accuracy as it’s thought of. But accuracy is simply a byproduct of a culmination of high quality parts built to accent each other. Not to mention the loose nut behind the wheel(or trigger in this case) doing their part! I have no interest in building a quality, bullet proof upper and sticking a cheap piece of plastic under it! (Notice I said plastic, not polymer. If you need help understanding the meaning there, than you aren’t in the right conversation)
Yes, 6061 was the norm when Billets were new on the scene....7, 8 years ago.. maybe longer. But now 80% 7075 Billets are plentiful among several manufacturers. I have put a tremendous amount of research into them, and have chosen the my supplier for several reasons.
Nothing wrong with 6061 other than it being much softer, but like I said, I don’t go “lesser” on my builds in order to save $30 bucks.
Before these 80%’s were available, I would ONLY use Spikes tactical stripped lowers. Believe it or not, I was actually one of Spikes Tactical's FIRST customers! I remember when they were a small start-up company, and many people thought I was crazy buying from them. LOL!
