TN Arms Hybrid Polymer/Brass Stripped Lower, Any Color - $30.99 Code - "CALGUN15"

[FaRKle!]

Why does anyone need or want a half pound AR?

If the answer is "cuz I can", I get that but what's the practical application?

Because lightweight is easier to drive from target to target. It's also good to use when teaching females how to shoot an AR because they tend to lack the upper body strength so a 7lb AR gets distracting/tiring for them to hold up much more quickly.

I've owned TN Arms poly lowers since they were first released, and have beta tested the product over multiple revisions (the current one has ironed out all significant issues I've found and reported). I have full confidence these are strong enough lowers and have run my 5.5lb gun (including optics & accessories) with it through a couple carbine classes.

Frank Proctor has ~10K (probably more now) on his TN Arms lower with no issues.

TN Arms is very easy to work with and if they come out with a newer revision of the lower, you can exchange your current one for free (well, you'd pay to ship it there, but that's it).

I purchased a polymer lower from FMK out of curiosity in 2013 and almost immediately it started to develop cracks at the rear take down pins. I complained and they exchanged it for a new and improved lower. Their first generation design had some problems and they re-enforced the areas on the lower that experience the highest stress. The new design was called The Extreme. FMK was actually very good about the whole thing and they apologized about the inconvenience and told me I would be very happy with the new one. I combined the new lower with a lightweight carbine kit and took it out to the range to check it out.

I have to say that the finished rifle with a collapsible stock is noticeably lighter than a standard AR setup. I shot 100+ rounds out of it the first day without any problems and inspected the lower at 10x magnification for cracks when I got home. No cracks so it looks like the new design has promise. I say that because there is not a lot of history on polymer lowers, at least not to the extent there is on aluminum lowers.

I have heard some of the old timers complain that you cant bash bad guys over the head with a polymer lower. Well maybe you can, someone should test that out. Personally, I don't care. This AR would be great for taking out to shoot small game because you can carry it without getting tired. Granted that you can sling it however having it at the ready would improve your chances of hitting something.

I am looking around for 80% polymer lowers that compare to the deals I have been seeing with the aluminum 80% lowers. You would never have to replace your end mill cutting tool.

Because MURICA.

On a serious note, TNArms are G2G. The owner is great and communication for orders or support is fast.

Hey Guys, we are actually working with a polymer 80% company that wants to use our design on an 80%. So that is in the works. Won't have our name on it, but same material, same inserts. Hopefully that mold will be ready by the end of July or so. Let me know if you have any questions about the lowers themselves, but I can't advertise sales or prices because I'm not a paying vendor. I will let you know that we have updated high round counts from customers. So far we have 60K 223/5.56 on a lower in PA. 18K 300 Blackout from a redditor out west, well it's west of me but probably east of Cali. I have also made a new code for you guys and told one of your CalGuns brethren over at reddit that he can post it if he likes but it's easy to find in the comments of my last gundeals thread. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks Guys

Would LOVE a polymer 80% version of this bad boy.

[juelz919]

That's sick dude. If you have any say in the matter keep them from charging exorbitant prices. This looks like an awesome deal for sure.

Thanks!

I really don't have any say in the matter. They are just using us for the mold. Hopefully we'll be able to sell them as a retailer since we will be making them in the back.

Got the discount code & updated the title & post.

Man, I really want that 80% lower....that, the TACCOM 22LR upper offer, Minimalist stock and a few bricks of 22 that I've been hoarding, I mean saving, now that's a fun time!

I saw the update on your Facebook page for 308... It seems end of June... Do think thats pretty accurate or is there a chance it will be longer?

[Inquirer]

+1 for the 80% lowers. Talked to TAC on Facebook, quick response. Looking forward to July. TAC, any preorders in the rumor mill?
