The new lower is in! I just took it to the range, and I love the Radian lower. I'm still getting used to the ambidextrous controls. A couple times, I tried to hit the bolt release with my right hand, but I dropped the mag. Oops. I have to build up some new muscle memory with this thing.

I found it out of state on Armslist. It was a horrible ad and I thought it was probably a scam, especially since it was only $300. :shock: The guy had it listed for a long time too, so that was another reason I was suspicious. Long story short, I confirmed the guy was real after a lot of back and forth, and now here it is!

Depends on what you're building.
Aero's seems to have tight magwells. If you're building an ar22 with the bettermag adapter using S&W 15-22 mags, the mags are very tight and won't drop free. Use an Anderson lower and everything works great.

^^^ Plenty of Aero lowers out there with tight magwells (USGIs or PMAGs won't drop free). I've had 2 of them. Their customer service is great though, so they will take care of you if you happen to get one that's out-of-spec (at least on new purchases from authorized dealers).

OP: Score...Looks great!
