Spikes Tactical Billet Lower Gen 2

[Saintacro]

Hello Folks,
I am trying to order my first AR 15 through Spikes and wanted to get the billet set gen 2 with maglock solution using AR Maglock plus Kingpin, but was told by Spikes staff that the Kingpin is not working on their billet lower Gen 2 because the position of the rear take down pin hole is different than regular lower.

I am wondering if there is any one has experience with this billet and maglock experience?

Thank you all in advance.

Yes, this is the one.

I think the mag release part is fine and the mag lock itself works on this receiver, as I was not told any issue about that.

The problem is the rear take down pin, maybe just as you mentioned, the width is different so the kingpin is not working.

Not sure if there is any other solution currently for fixed mag-it would be the pain in the neck to have pull up the pin every time not being able to use kingpin or hellfighter.

Thank you so much for your reply!

Where are the featureless guys at? they would tell you a fix mag is dangerous to your health.

It just would look so much better with a 30 rounder hanging out of that beautiful lower.

If the above statement is true, then that lower receiver will not be compatible with any standard upper receiver.

I have no problem with featureless except the grip, current grip options of featureless is not my thing, so I guess I will have to go with fix mag for now.

Appreciate your reply

Totally agreed, I would go by 10/30 for sure

Pfft! Fashion before function sucks!

Does anybody really not have both, I have both featureless and maglock. With the maglock I can just rotate uppers with it and not worry about evil features being a problem works for range rifles.

Or, have all four kinds, right? Maglock, featureless, BBRAW and free state ones.

I run maglocked ar but I'm considering building my spare lower into a featureless rifle to take advantage of my freedom 30's
