Completes my BRN180 Upper
This is a high-quality lower receiver meant to compliment the BRN180 upper. The fit and finish are excellent. Assembly was easy and quick. I am very happy with this receiver and I like the ambidextrous controls.
Awesome match for the Gen3 upper!
Other than not having the ability to lock the bolt back from the right side, I can't fine anything I don't live about this receiver. I didn't think ambi lowers were really necessary being a right handed shooter but I love the natural, intuitive position of the left-side mag release. All the holes are tight, which is good, and the stainless detent screws will be fine with a bit of added loctite.
