I bought their lower because I wanted to make a super light rifle.  I don't think I'll be getting another one due to fit issues.  I have a Rainier Arms upper receiver and the front pivot pin wont go all the way through.

I have their lower -- No issues at all during the install.

I have two of their uppers on order.

Here is the plan:

Lower Receiver -- Mag Tactical Systems Magnesium Lower
Receiver Extension -- PWS 416 billet
Stock: Milspec Magpul CTR with the rubber butt pad removed
Buffer: JP Silent Buffer
Selector: Battle Arms Development CASS ST
Bolt Release: Seekins Billet
Magazine Release: Seekins Billet Button and Norgon Ambidextrous Release
Trigger: Geissele SD3G
Grip: Magpul MOE K2
Take Down Pins: Battle Arms Development
Sling: Padded BlueForceGear VCAS with sewn in QD Connectors

*Note: No buffer retainer pin/spring installed.

Upper Receiver: Mag Tactical Systems Magnesium Upper
Rail: BCM KM13 Magnesium Keymod rail
Rail Covers: BCM
Barrel: Lightweight 14.5" barrel, Noveske/BCM/Spikes
Flash Suppressor: B. E. Meyers 249 pinned in place
Gas Block: V7 Titanium .750" Gas Block
Gas Tube: V7 Inconel
Bolt: Spike's Tactical S7
Bolt Carrier: Spike's Tactical Titanium Bolt Carrier Group
Charging Handle: Raptor Ambidextrous
Dust Cover: V7 Dust cover and pin
Backup Iron Sights: Spike's Tactical lightweight BUIS
Optic: Aimpoint T1, 2moa on a LaRue Absolute Co-witness Mount
Weapon Light: Surefire M600 Ultra on a Keymod offset mount
Sling Mount: QD Keymod

All said and done, I'm hoping to be at around 5 - 5.25 pounds.

I forgot to add the weight..

4.6# without the sling and scope assembly. About 6-1/2 lbs completely loaded.

After MAG confirmed that they use Cerakote "Magpul FDE" I had my handguard done up to match. As you can see, all three pieces match perfectly.
