[QUOTE="mugsy, post: 2003955, member: 18914"] I have used all metal ARs for years (in the military) but have recently, lets say the last two years, assembled and used several composite lower with light-weight conventional uppers and found that this combination makes for a fun, easy to carry rifle. I have yet to see a significant drawback from the composite lower, however, if I were considereing extreme cold use such as in Alaska in winter I might be a little leery of the composite as they may have a tendency to get brittle in extreme cold. The composite lowers also basically save you $100.00 or more off of a conventional lower at typical prices. [/QUOTE]
