Anyone seen these? Made with GI parts and new "weathered" Unbranded AR-15 lower and Green Mountain CL 1/9 bbls. Right around $1300.

I had two of those Unbranded AR Retro lowers and they were out of spec. The safety decent hole was off and the fcg pocket was not centered. Three ish years ago, though.

Those lowers aren't anywhere near retro. they're the most "modern" forging Cerro puts out. A similar, but not exact version was used on the later M16A4 and M4A1 made by FN.

Looks like a lot of the lower parts are modern, they just scuffed up the finish.
I recognize the safety as one that comes in a very cheap LPK. |

They could of at least ground the tick down on the anderson safety like all the no tick ones on the market, which are wrong regardless. Which someone would make the correct one. |

1:9 barrel, incorrect ugly lower, beat to hell parts kit
At least they were nice enough to throw the lower down the driveway to match the rest of the parts |

Absolute hard pass. On its best day those rifles are maybe $599.
Edit, I went and looked at the ad again and my $599 figure was generous, and I order a bunch of stuff from Atlantic but these rifles are shit IMHO. |

They are scrapping the bottom of the barrel but they must still be selling at 1-12 hundred a pop. |
