Aero M4E1- still the best lower?

I've been out of the AR game for a while but people loved these things when they came out. Threaded roll pin for bolt catch and that sort of thing. Is it still the go-to or is there another I should consider?

      Okay, is there another company making a lower with the same features?

      the m4e1 lower has always been the go-to economy lower. it was only /arg/ that decided it wasn't cool anymore and the covid vax scandal was all they needed to rationalize it.

      its a perfectly good lower with no real downsides for its price point.

        I have two. They are as good as a lower needs to be, unless you want an ambi bolt catch and release. I dremeled one of mine for a PDQ. Just don't get one with their standard logos. It looks like a dude pooping, and once that was pointed out I can never get over it.

        /arg/ has no right to get mad about Aero following the WA vax mandate. They don't understand the tyranny of Jay Inslee and the gay brigade. Besides, Aero will probably be kicked out of Washington if the WA AWB bill passes.

    Yeah, a normal fricking lower receiver. Maybe just an ambi safety if you’re a lefty.

      There isn't actually a downside to this compared to a regular receiver, you just like being contrarian.
      Nobody would choose to frick with roll pins if they don't have to. And it can take 90° safeties. And as far as anti-rotation pins... What the hell are you talking about?

      It's very flawed. Front takedown pin hole is unreinforced. Mine broke there. Safety is very sludgy. I needed to put grip tape on the grip and the stock because my hands and face kept slipping when sweaty. The magwell is nice, mine came with a PDQ slot, and it's easy to put together for newbs. If you buy one, don't expect it to last if you actually use it. Also worth noting that it is only 7 oz lighter than my traditional complete lower with an A5 buffer and B5 stock.

      the best? no, probably cmt or lmt or radian or adm or kac or whatever other gucci lower

      ADM and LWRC have the best ambi bolt catch/release imo, which aside from full auto pockets, and manufacturing tolerances is all that you can't improve yourself.

          Just with the slot. I ordered from KE so I'm sure they got some dosh, but I wanted to try it so idc. Ian is still cool in my book.

            those are called "KP-15 WWSD DIY" on the website (oh they have one in OD Green now, hmmmmm) and anything with the WWSD branding on it gives license royalties to Ian and Karl

              Well, I'm fine with Ian getting a cut. Karl's existence is tragic enough that I feel no need to do him harm.

        Pws is a bit better than lwrc and lmt due to the fact it can work with nonstandard uppers due to a more horizontal ambi paddle.

      I've got one, kinda fugley but it's comfy and does the job. Echo three nine does a stock cut that I wouldn't mind having.

      I've got two Aero m4e1 lowers and they're good quality. You just can't beat the streamlined looks for something a little bit different. The threaded Bolt release hole is a nice thing to have, but the threaded takedown pin detent hole really isn't worthwhile unless you're building a 22lr pistol with a plug.

        i don't really get how this is any different than 3d printing a lower, or a polymer80 lower. why not just get an actual metal lower?

          glass filled nylon is stronger than 3d printer filament and KE will replace it if yours explodes for less than the price of the filament to print a new one

            hows that gonna work? you'd have to do another ffl transfer every time. so, probably not any cheaper for you.
            even then, i don't want mine to explode at all. i mean that's great that when it breaks they'll send you a new one, but i'd rather it just uh, you know.
            not break. but, if i was going to get a plastic lower, i figure i'd just get an unregulated one. not grilling you, just something i haven't thought much about at all.

            Mine cracked on the front take down hole when I mortared the rifle. They'd probably replace it, but I wouldn't want them too. It's a nice enough idea, but the design needs refining and reinforcing.

          having the stock be a part of the lower makes it a bit less delicate, the main issue with poly lowers is that they snap at the buffer tube slot.

                I decided to get a C7 Upper from Tony's customs. Just got to wait for him to ship it. I didn't mind the lack of Colt gray so much because I was planning on painting it anyway. Not terribly original but I'm making the Gordo carbine.

                I picked up the Holosun SCS. I was intrigued by the rechargeable battery and low profile.

    it's fine

    morons who buy $500 lowers get mad and do mental gymnastics to rationalize why they didn't buy an $80 lower that has the exact same features

    underaged r*dditors who don't own guns and couldn't afford an $80 lower anyway will get mad at anything they can't afford to make themselves feel better about not being able to afford something

    tl;dr its fine lower, runs on my machine
