Angstadt Arms making Glock lowers.

[ibanez320dx]

Angstadt Arms is coming out with a line of Glock style AR lowers. Their instagram page says April of this year. The website shows platforms for 9mm, 40 and 357 sig. Their uppers don't have dust covers or forward assist but I would assume any other upper would fit. I know a lot of members have been looking for this style lower so I figured I'd pass it along.

It will be interesting how they work. From other discussion, one from a manufacturing IP here on the board, apparently the Glock mag angle is "difficult". Don't ask me specifics. Just casual reading.

Here's a video of their 9mm from SHOT Show.

I read that you have to modify an AR bolt or bolt carrier in order to make the Glock magazine lowers work. Is that true? Seems like a pain when I could just get a lower that took Colt magazines

Not very difficult:

I shoot mine all the time and loading the Glock mags is so much easier.

Watching the video, it looks like it follows the up and out just like a glock pistol. For folks that are use to just pushing up to load an AR, that might feel a little weird. I also don't like the peep holes all glock mags have. In this application I would worry about dirt and water getting into the mag, possibly causing a rust issue down the line.

I'm sure they will sell a bunch of them, if for no other reason, they are putting together 2 very popular platforms, the glock and AR15.

Any ideas on a price? I didnt see any $ listed?

 

[ibanez320dx]

I haven't seen much on price. Their complete riffles are supposed to be around $1200-$1300 I believe. No idea on lowers/uppers.

Looks pricey

 

[ibanez320dx]

MSRP is $479 for the set according to Instagram. Little pricey.
