BTW just bought, 2 months ago, an Anderson "slick" upper on sale for $39.00 that is just as tight as any of the BCM uppers I have, call it luck or whatever but there it is.
I agree in these times quality is the first thing out the door "buyer beware!"
Um no, "Anderson barrel and BCG channel is not as tight as BCM" if that is what you meant.. That said,I have had great luck with Anderson receivers and have had very successful builds with them. Good catch on the Anderson upper..
I have never seen ammo prices jump as much as they have in the past year and I refuse to purchase practice 9mm or 5.56 ammo at the current prices . All material prices have gone nuts in construction and companies are taking advantage of this for sure. There are many jobs in my area on hold for lack of product and all are paying a premium when available.
I guess it all depends on how bad a person wants or needs a product.. I fear prices will continue to be high until the demand lessons..
