what's the minimum number of spare stripped lowers every responsible american should keep in case of bans/shortages/breakages/wear

>>32346438
it's people like you that cause $50 lowers to shoot up to $150 during elections
>>
>>32346438

At least one or two spare for every complete rifle you already own, strictly to replace broken or severely worn lowers, not to price gouge your fellow patriots in the event of a ban.
>>
>>32346438
Stripped lowers are poorfag tier hoarding. Just get complete rifles.
>>
Kind of off topic, but i'm trying to pick out a stripped lower for my first AR, i've heard good things about aero precision any advice or recommends?
>>
>>32346569
Aero Precision receivers are about as good as you can get a mil-spec receiver. If you want a fancy billet or ambi receiver, then there are other options, but for regular mil-spec, you can't go wrong.

>>32346724
steel pins moving constantly in aluminum holes, yes lowers wear out, although i guess you can always just get new bigger pins
>>
How the fuck many lowers do you people get through in a year?


Can't you 3d print the fucking things already?

You are not me and you have no idea what you're talking about.

>>32346724
I imagine that at some point if used very heavily the receiver could possibly be banged up or its finish worn out. Probably very unlikely but I bet it's possible. Would be nice to have spares in the event you somehow end up with a fucked up magwell or the finish has been scraped off to the point that it's raw metal that rusts easily.

Shit's damned well priced. It's either that or pay 10 bucks and transfer fee to get a 40 dollar anderson from their website.

>>32346753
Nobody buys stripped lowers because they "go through" them. If you are buying a stripped lower, you either

a) plan on building a full rifle for yourself, but can't afford the rest of the gun right now and are afraid that future legislation will make them permanently unaffordable or unobtainable, or

b) are hoarding "firearms" to scalp them later, in the unlikely event of another Assault Weapons Ban, either in the panic-buying leading up to the legislation, or after the legislation passes so you can say that you have a legal pre-ban AR-15 for sale

Up until July of last year, it had seemed that more gun control in the short term was inevitable, but that has been postponed for potentially quite a long time now.

That's a good price, you dumbass.

Why is it always a Californian who bitches about a $10 difference in price, justifying their attitude by claiming that they're already going to spend hundreds of dollars in fees to the state anyway, so why shouldn't they save a few sheckles when they can? >>32347323
>>
>>32347323
oh yeah, and the 9% tax is calculated after the price of the gun and $35 california registry fee is summed up. because the mandatory state registry from the cuckstate that thinks the FBI system is not good enough is a taxable "service"

Just stop posting.
>>
If you're going to stock up receivers, stock on up 80% receivers. What the fuck good will 100 Anderson lowers do you if there is a record of you buying 100 Anderson lowers?

Beyond that, go for things that actually wear down, run out or can get lost easily. Barrels, bolts, springs, pins, chemicals, solvents, cleaning supplies, etc.

imagine you lived in a state where you had to pay taxes for unconstitutional bullshit services in order to exercise your right to buy and own a firearm


>tfw soon there will be california approved censors to filter "fake news" and any 1st amendment postings on 4chan will have to be filtered by censors in cuckfornia, and you will have to pay a fee to fund the cuckfornia censorship department and then taxes on top of that fee because it is a taxable service

tfw does this analogy drive the point home?
>>
>>32347289
OK, so my billing address on my credit card is different than my actual address (listed on my ID). will this be a problem when I pick it up?
>>
>>32347396
So move to a better state. Don't shit up threads about how you don't think gun prices are good when they are, in fact, very good. People in free states can order a $40 Anderson lower online, but after $10-15 shipping and usually $20 in FFL fees, they would end up paying more than what that lower costs from a brick and mortar store like Cabelas, where there are no extra fees except sales tax.

You literally just wanted a platform to complain about your shitty life, didn't you. That's why everyone is giving you shit and hates you.
>>
>>32347419
It shouldn't be. You just have to be the person on the order, as they cannot transfer it to anyone else. And they will use your ID+Whatever to verify against the order and for the 4473.

this type of cuck mentality is difficult for me to understand.

cuckfornia produces almost all of the USAs vegetables and fruits, and a large portion of dairy, rice, grains, beef and other agriculture

moving to another state and abandoning the breadbasket of america is a cuck mentality. what is your ultimate solution, for all conservatives to leave california, and give it back to mexico? california is one of the wealthiest states in terms of resources and production of food, and you want to just give it to the beaners? but at the same time you are voting for border control and immigration enforcement, you are recommending non-libtard californians to leave the state and let it continually be run by leftwing radicals? how is that in the interest of you as an american?

Who the FUCK said anything about vegetables? Are you a farmer and you can't sell the farm? No? Then shut the fuck up with the victim complex and stop giving your tax dollars to Californian state government. When they run out of money, they will think of ways to make the state more appealing to normal people again, but as long as you don't vote with your feet, nothing will change.

do you like broccoli? because we literally make 99% of the USA broccoli. same with almonds, same with grapes, olives, olive oil, walnuts, peaches, the list goes on and on. so instead of just telling conservative cuckfornians to leave or acting like its their fault dems have got into power illegally, why dont you do something constructive like help advocating to the president to send the military in and free us?

>>
also liberalism spreads like cancer its coming to you. no state is safe. even montana is 40% dem controlled
>>
>>32346438
Just keep an extra or two if you can find them cheap so you have them for your next build. Having a pile of lowers is retarded. If you're going to stockpile shit, you'd be better served buying more ammo or barrels.

>bans
You'll see that coming a mile away.
>shortages
That will only ever happen because of an impending ban, which is why you buy what you want NOW instead of being a panic-buying retard in 2020.
>breakages
Fucking what? Has anyone ever had lower break? Short of your rifle lower getting shot I don't think you're going to hurt it too badly.
>wear
Again, what the fuck are you smoking? It's a block of aluminum. It's easily the most robust part of an AR and one of a few parts that shouldn't ever really need to be replaced.

All the retards ITT talking about it rusting or stretching should just kill themselves.

It is up to date. It's a long story. But I just added my real address (the one on my ID) to the address book on my account. So it will at least be on there somewhere.

Get fucking bent. If the guy wants to horde lowers, for the most common fucking rifle in the country, that are scraping the bottom of the barrel on price due to the completely fucking saturated market, he can. Fuck off back to where ever you fucked here from.

I don't know but I have gotten into the bad fucking havit if buying a lower for a new build plus 1 as a "just in case" investment.

Unfortunately after a few months that lower looks so sad not being a complete rifle, so I begin to build a new build. But then my "just in case" lower is gone so I end up buying another and so the cycle repeats.
