Just a quick visual review of the Plum Crazy C-15 Complete Lower. This will be my dad's rifle, he's more of an AR guy.
This was purchased from our industry partner JoeBobOutfitters listed for $119.95. JoeBobOutfitters has great prices, fast shipping, and excellent communication. The FFL used was also an industry partner KeepShooting.com, they were great to work with and very accommodating.
Here's the item description from JoeBob:
Nice textured finish. The serial number sits right below the fire selector.
The trigger has a smooth pull. The whole FCG is polymer. If it breaks, the lower has a lifetime warranty just send it in for replacement or replace it with any mil-spec FCG. I've only heard one instance of the actual trigger breaking though.
Logo on the right side of mag well.
6-position commercial buffertube. The stock has very little play, just a tiny bit back and forth.
The following are metal:
Everything else is a dense polymer. Seems pretty sturdy. It is a little rough on the seams but for the price it's easy to overlook. $120 for a complete budget lower? Yes please. Comes with a lifetime warranty too.
The lower is well-built and should handle range duty/plinking just fine for the budget minded. And then there's always the guy with the .50BMG upper: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=90gSOiJ8iyU
This will be mated with a Palmetto State Armory 16" SS 1/8 twist .223 Wylde upper.

A review on that will come up in the following week if anyone's interested.
My goal here was to get my dad an AR that wouldn't break the bank. I'd say it worked out great.
P.S. I apologize for the quality of the photos. I'm not a camera guy. XD
I'll be happy to answer any questions.

Here's the item description from JoeBob:
By Far the most advanced composite AR 15 lower on the market today, and at a price anyone can afford. Formed from a blend of scientifically advanced materials, the PCF C-15 lowers have proven to be among the lightest, most durable composite lowers available today. And because they are molded from a solid color, finish ware and scratches are a thing of the past.
Every lower is shipped with the accu-group composite fire control system, a market first in the AR 15 world, and offer a 4.5lb to 5.0lb trigger pull with zero perceived creep, an ultra crisp let off, and incredibly fast lock up times. These lowers also feature a reversible safety to accommodate right or left hand shooters.
Still want more? How about a six position buffer tube and slider (commercial)? If that’s not enough, how about the fact that this lower will except any milspec upper and offers an 8% elongation factor, giving it a zero slop fit? No more wedging the back of your lower with extra parts!
A nice inexpensive light lower option at 1LB, 11oz compared to 2lb, 3oz of a similarly equipped forged lower.
Nice textured finish. The serial number sits right below the fire selector.
The trigger has a smooth pull. The whole FCG is polymer. If it breaks, the lower has a lifetime warranty just send it in for replacement or replace it with any mil-spec FCG. I've only heard one instance of the actual trigger breaking though.

6-position commercial buffertube. The stock has very little play, just a tiny bit back and forth.
The following are metal:
- Buffertube assembly including the castle nut
- Bolt stop
- Springs
- FCG pins?
