Cavalryarms receivers

[sak]

Hi everybody, this is my first post. Planning to build a AR, has anybody used a Cavalry Arms polymer receiver on their AR. Would appreciate any pros and cons on this.
Thank you

Welcome to PM!

I have used a couple of the Cav. Arms lowers. Where I was not real impressed with them, they did do everything my customer wanted. The don't have the adaptability that a standard lower receiver has. You are stuck with the grip and butt-stock. On the standard lower receiver, the options as far as grips and stocks are virtually endless.

I like the look of them and shaving of some weight can't hurt but I was concerned with fit issues.

Cav Arms lowers have occasionally broken. If you can afford one, I'd buy a better aluminum receiver. You will, of course, have to add the cost of a stock, buffer tube, etc.
