I recently ordered this Anderson carbine on Sportsman's

It's fifty bucks, who gives a shit about fifty bucks unless you're a poorfag? Also that AR is total shit.

I'd be more pissed about spending all that money on an AR only to realize it's a piece of shit and then have to spend even more money on a decent AR after throwing that one in the trash.

>total shit
I thought Anderson is a reputable company?

>>32448896
you sound walmart.

>>32448939
Anderson never has been, it's pure poorfag garbage. You can look forward to out of spec receivers, improperly torqued barrel nuts and receiver extensions, improperly staked bolt carriers, gas keys, etc, and most likely issues with finish and accuracy.

>>32448939
Their lowers use 3/4" grip screws instead of the standard 1" screw. So you either have to buy their screws in order to attach a pistol grip to the lower.

what would you consider decent then?

>>32448952
Their lowers are fine. I wouldn't buy a complete rifle from them.

>>32448953
Not anymore. The last couple runs are threaded to use full length screws.

>>32448971
Oh, so was that a mess-up or did people call them out on it and they switched back to the 1" screw?

>>32448961
Except that isn't true any longer. I have built three rifles on anderson lowers for friends in the last two months, all of which are using standard A2 grips, and 1 inch screws. All of the lowers are properly threaded.

my friend just bought a complete anderson lower and the trigger pin just fell out while he was holding it - is that supposed to happen?

>>32448978
From what I understand they were threaded to an older pre A2 spec. Enough people complained, and they switched it back.

>>32448991
I wouldn't buy a rifle or complete lower from them. I can't speak for their small parts.

But when building rifles off of anderson lowers, I have never encountered an issue when using quality LPK's.

>>32448991
How is that possible? The trigger springs put tension on the pins making it tough to break them out.

I have a distinct feeling you're lying.

>>32448958
Agreed since most stripped lowers are the same i go with anderson for that part only.

>unless you're a poorfag
