What do you guys think of them? I noticed they are missing alot of details on them. I held one up next to my Colt lower and It looks kinda cheap. Thoughts?

They are very lightweight and work fine. However, they are much more fragile than regular lowers.

I've got one. Very light and has a GREAT trigger. You should do a search on this topic. There have been alot of threads in the last couple of months and a fair amount of criticism (hate) for the brand.

You'll find that they do break. Can't however, get any narrative as to how the hinge pin area self destructs. Make sure your skin is thick.

I still want to know if the New Frontier Lowers are really better than the PC ones. I have a New Frontier and it has a great trigger but the jury is out weather the "NEW" polymer is stronger than PC or not.

You can build a Alumium lower for just over $200. Why go with the junk. If you can't afford a real Lower, maybe you just should save up or wait.

If you like collecting cheap crap, then you'll love it. If you like getting a little more mileage out of your money, more bang for the buck, then look elsewhere.
I have hands on experience with them. Watch the receiver bend and flex when you change out receiver end plates.
The Kel-Tec PLR-16 even makes the plum crazy look like junk.

Fatal design flaws but I guess they are cheap.

They might be lightweight, but plastic has no place in a lower.
Especially on a rifle you might just need to depend on.
