Lower is built!
Thanks again to shooter521 for taking time out of his morning to guide me through it. This is the first lower I've ever built, and was surprised at how easy it was. Mark's knowledge and task-specific tools made it even easier.
Parts used were:
I'm really diggin' Spike's version of a trigger guard. Normally I prefer the Magpul version because I find it a nice balance of form and function. The Spike's billet trigger guard has very similar lines, but is a bit beefier, has a few extra angles cut into it, and sports the spider logo. I like it because its different enough without being wild and crazy, like several others currently on the market.
Of course, I made sure to snap some pics along the way.
Next and final step: Complete my Form 1 and start the long wait for my government permission slip.
