    I'm looking for another lower for my .223 SBR build. I've got Next Generation and a DPMS but I'm looking for something different this time. I really like the Seekins lower but they're a bit expensive. Anybody got a suggestion?

    My 3Gun rifle has a C3 billet lower that I got off a prize table about two years ago: This Model . So far, I don't really have any complaints. I do have one mil spec mag that is too tight a fit but the rest and my Black Dog conversion mags work just fine. My guess was that the tolerances for mags isn't as precise as the tolerances used by C3. The tension screw is a nice touch and does a good job eliminating play between the upper and lower. Some day I might switch out the upper for a billet but for now I'm pleased with the rifle.

    Anybody had any issues with using a billet lower with a non-billet(forged)upper?

    I seem to be taken with the Mega billet lowers but I'm still looking too.
