Has anyone ever used any parts from SARCO? They appear to be mostly surplus parts. I was thinking about ordering some of their lower parts kits. Has anyone ever used one?

It would have been a better bargain if you had bought an AR parts kit for $289 when they first advertised them, but that's water over the dam.  You could have justified the risk by saving ~ $100.

Now that they are $386, I don't think that they are worth the risk, though.  DPMS kits are advertised for ~ $379 from Kieslers in the SGN and ~ $399 on the FAC website.  When I posted a similar response a few weeks ago, a poster said that FAC sometimes is out of stock.

I had one bad experience with SARCO and will not do business with them again.  There are too many reliable honest shops to bother with SARCO.

Its a hit or miss with parts from Sarco . They get alot of USED surplus and NEW surplus . You have NO say as to which your getting .  You deside whether or not to order from them based on that knowledge.  Good luck

Just to keep things fair and balanced, I've dealt with SARCO a few times and always got exactly what I ordered, at a fair price, and shipped quickly. No complaints at all from me.

Sarco had 3 things i wanted to buy
ar15 lower parts kit $44
m16 butt stock current production $30
m203 handguard $20

My fear is that I'll get a cracked handguard, an A1 buttstock thats missing a buffer and spring, and the kit will be missing pins or springs. Has any one ordered these specific items from Sarco befor? Or can they recomend a better retailer that has them for the same price?

I ordered an Ar lower parts kit from them and averything was there.  The only thing was they sent an m16 selector instead of an AR.  I didn't use it.  But did find that interesting.  When I installed the parts everything worked.  The front of the trigger that sits against the hammer was a little thicker then my other parts kit triggers.  I just ground it down with adremmel and have not had a problem with it,
