Need help finding specific lower - michaelmew - 05-25-2011

My father wants me to help him build an AR. His first "custom" requirement is that the lower use the words FIRE and SAFE and be colored. There are a million lowers out there, does anyone know who makes one with those conditions? Obviously, the cheaper the better.

Option B, buy the cheapest lower I can find and have the fire choices colored. Who does that?

Thanks

Try a Spikes Tactical lower receiver. If you cant find them at spikes tactical because of a backorder issue try Pete over at http://www.Peacekeeperdefense.com I just bought 2 from there about 3 months ago. They were 120.00 dollars thats with fire and safe colored as well as the spider logo on the side colored. But you can get them non colored as well.

I second that spikes lower. Essential Arms makes a good one too. Both are made in 'merica, and cost less than 90 bucks.

I bought a Spike's tactical for myself with the colored pictures, that is what started this whole mess. He, for some reason, wants the words instead. I think I will try the paintstick approach first on one of my other lowers. Worst case I'm out only a couple of dollars and time isn't that important.
