'Y2K'??? You're being sarcastic, right?

The AX556 lower from AXTS is a pretty badass ambi lower...Seekins SP223 is another although it seems like a receiver sone love and other HATE. I'd be happy with either...

Wow.  I thought I was "hip" to the modern lingo, but I don't understand anything in that post besides "billet" and "lowers".

Not really understanding your first question.  Are you looking for some nice billet ambi lowers?  Here's one that I just picked up and built.  Rainier Ultramatch billet ambi lower.

I own 2 Seekins lowers and a few NorthTech uppers. They are dope.

BUT this is the best looking setup on the soon to be market hands down I think!
Click the thread below.

I love my Seekins SP223 unmarked, which means no unflattering logos on the mag well.  That Spikes lower looks pretty nice too.  The one that doesn't resemble the WWII War Hawk or whatever that gaudy thing is supposed to resemble.

Durn straight.    I wish they would have left it with out any logo at all.  I am just not a big fan of huge/big/gaudy engravings and roll marks.

I have the seekins without the big logo. You hardly notice the small logo at all  once you assemble it into a complete rifle.

And if you use KNS non rotating pins, you can almost cover up the logo.  But then you have KNS pins.    lol's I put KNS on mine because I needed to waste more money....

You can. Just get an 80% lower and complete it. They do have the forge mark but that's it.

Will you post photos and a small review of your TiN BCG? Maybe in the build it yourself forum.
I want to see one after its been used and abused a little bit.
I am down with NIB.. I love Robar more.. (NP3) .. I own both... but I want to see what a TiN bolt looks like after some field use.

Thanks!

using the arfcom lower can you lock the bolt to the rear on the right side of the lower ? and if so can you also release it from the right side ?

You can not lock the bolt back from the right. But there is a bolt release on the right side. Just above the mag release.

The top right of the Raddlock is hitting the ambi bolt release guard.  I have to grind down the raddlock for it to sit flush. Raddlock works just fine.  I'll grind it down when I get the chance.

Same with the KNS pin.  I had to grind that down for it to sit flush as it was hitting the ambi bolt release guard.
