    Wondering how many stripped lowers INGO members keep on hand and why.
    Are they for planned builds or in anticipation of a possible ban?
    Or is it imprudent to ask at this time?:shady:

    I'll start:
    9
    3 plan
    6 ban

    What say you?

    Were stripped lowers affected during the last ban? I honestly wasn't into AR building during that time.

    I was implying that a future ban may include all serial numbered parts (thus, the gun) able to utilize a detachable magazine. Thus a supply of lowers, which can be completed at a later date for use or sale, may be a worthwhile investment. Last time they banned weapons with certain combinations of features (pistol grip, detachable magazine,bayonet lug, etc).

    I currently have two that are semi planned builds. I always try to buy any I see on here that are at a decent price but they go fast. I'm not really worried about a ban. I just think they are fun to collect.

    LOL, right now there are three stripped lowers & build kits in the basement.

    1 is my cousins. I'm waiting for him to come to town so I can assemble it in front of him.

    1 is my brothers. I'm waiting on him to sack up and tell his Obama loving wife that actually has this stashed at my house and wants to complete the project.

    1 is mine. I'm waiting on my Obama loving communist cousin from Chicago to come to town so I can show him just how big of a joke the gun bans are and what an idiot he is for thinking that they can control legal gun ownership. He already knows I'm a gun owner so any sense of secrecy is already gone.

    Otherwise, the rifles are complet, built, fired (alot), cleaned and oiled.

    none. but now i wish i had bought one of the those gimmicky PSA Obama lowers. lol

    Call it a hunch, but I'm guessing that they'll have more anti Obama lowers coming soon. When they do, I won't be missing the boat.

    I have enough... most of them for ban reasons... I want to be able to give each of my kids at least one AR15 and I'm not taking any chances on a ban screwing that up. I have plenty sitting around to make sure I've got all the kids covered if the lord blesses us with many children. ;)
