New frontier armory lower...
I don't suggest running that on anything bigger than 9mm upper. 223/556 uppers have been known to break them. I've seen 2 personally cracked from 556 upper use.

They're rated very well for .223 and New Frontier has been pretty good about sending replacement lowers to customers who have had problems with cracking. I'd encourage you to go look up the "torture test" videos that NFA has on their website and on youtube. In a lot of cases they're actually holding up better than aluminum.
In any case, it's already been purchased so I'll let you know first-hand how it holds up if I can ever find ammunition, a magazine and an upper for it. :bustin:

Ever see a lower blow up? If you are willing to catch a bolt to the face the. Go for it.
Either way in 10 months when you can find the rest of your stuff, ill be waiting for your review.

9mm is harder on lowers than 223.

that all depends on how you run your gun. You shoot 556 or 223 out of your uppers?
