Definitely an AK, I don’t see why they’d tease the krink at this point so has to be something new.

Hopefully it’s an AK12/AK15

That’s disappointing, but I understand why.

Still, there’s only so much you can do. Without the occasional rerelease it’s going to be difficult to keep up a steady stream.

I’m not sure how popular they might be, but I’d love a lower with a Chi Rho on it. Emperor Constantine I had his soldiers paint this on their shields, it’s the Greek letters “X” and “P” , the first two letter in the word “Christ”.

I kept it as simple as possible.
If they made it, or a variation of it, it would make for a nice lower.

I was thinking about some of the recent comments, and also looking back through the feedback from the past few years.
The final choice of model number, serial, and selector markings, can really make or break a design.
And also a possible sale.

Those design suggestions are perfect for political one-offs, and series stuff, like Space Force & PFG.
It adds to the fun, and also helps make a point.

But maybe on some designs, such as known symbols and historical images, letting the design art speak for itself might be the way to go?

An example would be the Join or Die design just completed.
The lower art has been completely redrawn from the actual wood cut.
The snake is facing forward, and its not the same shape or pattern as the original.
But the brain relates it to what it knows, as it is stylized similarly, so the redraw works to fit the lower.

I'm not sure if PSA would be interested in creating a historical specific line or no.
They have made similar laser etched lowers in the past, and also the H&R line is pretty awesome.
It may also help eliminate any possible concerns or issues pertaining to the current gov, media, or ambulance chasers though.
Which could help with some of the designs folks have asked for, but have not yet been made.

So the Model and selectors would always remain the same, only the serial would change as a reference to the design, see below.
I can mock up a few more if the idea is appealing.

Thoughts?

I kind of agree, the nonstandard selector markings are fun for a meme lower but I think for more “serious” designs they are unnecessary.

It’s a safe move also, like you said, I’m sure they can make or break a sale.

ETA: I’d also recommend either dropping the “auto” altogether, or making it “safe, semi, auto”

The states that agreed to terms which were then violated?

The Constitution that was sold to the states as revocable? Because otherwise it never would have passed?

I think this Chi Rho lower is pretty sweet. Looks like there used to be a company that produced them too but went out of business some time ago. It's possible Frontier Armory in Las Vegas can recreate it too. I have a Battle Born lower from them that came out great but it's been years and years now since that time.

Look up the part New York played, and what had to be done by the others.

In any case, yes, I mean the states that agreed to terms they have since shit on.

One Benedict Arnold lower coming up.

Joking aside, the original design is 270 years old. I may have rework the snake to fit a lower, but it’s still in the style of the original. Not trying to rewrite history.

Not asking you to rewrite history. Asking you to write a new image for the future history that's being unveiled today. Give us the modern version that's currently pertinent.

Good Josiah,  sorry i havent checked this thread in a while.    Glad youre keeping them permanently retired. . that said,  I'd like a continuation of the series, im all for that.. more space force, more gremlans that'd be fine... of course some also like the holiday lowers too.. so maybe we should start those up again.  we could even do a memorial day lower.

i see what you mean, and understand it.  I think sometimes it may be ok.. but half of what made the memes so fun is even the selectors were changed.. and yes some of those can make or break the  lower.  I do think though that if we had real good selector choices, that could go with the lowers theme, then thats the way to go instead of the standard wording....
that said, however, what if we were to forgo all selector words entirely, and have it produced with Pictogram markings for safe, fire and auto?  That could be a work around from the selector markings entirely.


the examples of the grimlan and the space force that Brick had put on the previous page were also very good if you ask me.  I can see those being produced to further the lines of the Grimlan and the SpaceForce lowers.


I'd also be down for a National Guard Celebration lower, if we could come up with something thats not copywrited that would represent all of the national guard as a whole i think it would be really good.

If i had thought of it and had posted here sooner we could have thought about an Irish based St. Pattys day lower,  theres alot to work with with all the fighting the irish do as far as lower selector markings is concerned lol.  not to mention the irish mafia.. .

otherwise what about a memorial day lower like i briefly mentioned above?  thats the next big holiday and we have a little time before it comes around?  

just kicking around some ideas... @Palmettostatearmory josiah, is any of this anything that we could get moving on?

National Guard Celebration lower - that is why I bought three of the Minuteman One for me and one for each of my boys - My dad was a full bird in the Fl Guard...

I have suggested many time s that PSA do a National Guard lower for each state - Florida has a very cool one with the logo of the Fort in St. Augustine - the location of the headquarters.

Think that a lot of people would jump on that...PSA could do it as a preorder to get the number to do....have a few extra to finish off the run.

All good - Think the focus needs to be more on the good series than the flash in the pan "current BS"....

Seems to me that when this came up before that there is an issue with the state's NG logos are copyrighted?  I could be wrong on that, but that's floating around in my mind.
