    Just look at the build thread
    Should have mentioned they're the exact same loaded or not. I can't tell a difference at all between the amount of pressure required to insert or remove the mags. Think they just used some kind of thicker coating on the GPI than the Aero. The Aero is noticeably lighter as well.

    You just need to watch and make sure they're Gen 2 and not Gen 1 as they mix it up sometimes

    Check locally too. A few places have Andersons for $60 which isnt bad when you consider any shipping/transfer fees. One guy sells em for 50 but they go fast when he gets them.

    The only local place for me that can get Anderson said they rape him on shipping. Said unless he's ordering quite a few lowers at a time it's not worth it. They wanted $40 to ship him one stripped lower for me. Luckily he had the Aero in stock. Only reason I wanted Anderson was because they make a lower that's actually marked 6.8 rather than Multi Cal.

    Anyone have any experience with Live Free Armory? I'm highly considering buying one of their 5.56 uppers for some cheap plinking. Can get it complete with charging handle and BCG for $382 shipped to my door. I've read good things about them but would like to hear from someone who has some hands on experience with one.

    Whats coming with shipping is the taxability of shipping charges from state to state some states say it is some say it's not.....
