    I want to price out some AR 10 lowers. I haven't even built my new AR 15 yet and want to start on a 308.

    :lol:

    Does anyone have some sources for lowers?

    i haven't used or even seen in person, but the mega matched monolithic upper/lower looks totally badass. i think the model is ma-ten.

    i met the shadow ops guy a couple of times. totally into making a good product, he showed me some prototypes which were very nice, and he can do custom work.

    Did something change? I thought they had to stop selling the monolithic uppers due to copyright issues with LMT.

    Edit: It looks like they did discontinue them. http://megaarms.com/2012/07/monolithic-upper-notice/

    I saw a Noveske N6 lower at Accurate Pawn & Tackle. Has all parts but trigger assembly and stock, has buffer tube and some mags too.

    Basically you only choice is an Armalite or Eagle Arms if you can find one. However, Aero Precision and Noveske also produce lowers off of the same forgings as Armalite.

    Sorry for the potential hijack:

    Is it as easy to assemble an AR-10 lower with a LPK as it is an AR-15?

    Should be. Unfortunately I can't post the link but I think AR15.com has a fantastic write up about which parts interchange and that sort of thing. I hope someone can link me. Sorry!

    Shotgun News had a article on building one about 2 or 3 months ago, seems easy enuff, will be next project maybe, got way too many projects going.

    Part 1 started in July 20th 2012 issue, Part 2 in August 20th issue
    Matthews uses the DPMS LR-308 Lower, the DPMS AR10-RK20FFD parts kit.

    Check here also:

    haven't checked any of the lower makers out..

    Same. The pivot pin and takedown pin are very different though. The bolt catch and mag catch are different too but the standard AR15 models can be used in a pinch. Even the AR15 takedown and pivot pins could be used but it would be more involved than I care to explain to get them to work.

    Everything else is interchangable.

    YMMV
