    Where does Aero Precision sit in the group's opinion. I believe they white label for many companies and outsource their barrel work to Ballistic Advantage. I've never owned an Aero rifle but I think I'd take one over a S&W/Springfield/Brownells/PSA.

    Aero OEM’s receivers for other companies.

    Aero owns Ballistic advantage.

    The barrels and recovers are fine. The problem with Aero’s complete guns or complete receivers are assembly and the poor quality small parts they use.

    As such I put them on par with PSA. Fine for the range, not what I would choose for duty.

    What would you recommend for Lower Parts kits?

    When Brownells throws BCM complete lowers on sale, they are REALLY hard to beat. I'd take one over building out a stripped lower.

    Their lower receivers? Yes, their lower parts kits, no.

    Brownells. Sionics, DD, BCM, Geissele, SOLGW.

    SOLGW, BCM, DD or Geissele all are manufactures I would not hesitate to use. I like kits that do not include a trigger & grip so I can chose my preference.

    For example: https://www.primaryarms.com/sons-of-...o-fire-control

    Sionics Weapon Systems also has great lower parts kits.

    Any love for PWS and Lantac? Curious to hear user’s thoughts on those two brands.

    I’m also an LWRC fan as I’ve had great success with one of their piston guns (14.5” pinned) and their DI (16” kind of annoying proprietary rail, would prefer MLOK).

    Interesting info.

    I recently bought a slightly used complete AERO AR15, so if I replaced the LPK with a premium brand it would be good to go?

    Thanks.
