Two of the 3 were a great fit and could Not find the Blem while the 3rd has several shades to it's finish and a few scratches it was also not as tight as the first two but still okay and cost the most at $69.00 if I remember correctly. The other 2 were $49.99, I believe. Also it was bought within this last year!
I felt, still feel, both the product and prices were not only fair but Great but in this era of product availability or lack of I personally feel BCM is using that to off load a less than prefect product for a price, that in any other market setting, they would not be asking. To see a jump from 49/69 to 99 when other Co. are holding their pricing I'll spend my money elsewhere. JM2C
I remember when M-16 lowers were $150, Colt M-16 rifles were $700, diesel was 11 cents a gallon and river front property in Montana was $800 an acre..
Supply, demand and communist in government can make a difference...I saw an old Olympic parts gun painted with Krylon sell for $1000 after the Newtown shooting, where every modern porting rifle was sold out of every retail store in Missoula Mt.
Considering Anderson stripped uppers are going for $83.49, stripped Aero's are going for $114.99, and stripped BMC thermol fit uppers are going for $119 when available, their blems are about right for this market...
I'm leery of buying anything in this market, since QC always drops when demand rises...
