When are we gonna make a new batch of OK Shooters AR lowers? I figure with Trump back in we could make a great design. Anyone in the know about this. I missed the last batch by a day. I’m still butt hurt over it.

The company that did the original OSA lowers is no longer around. Unless someone here is in with a small manufacturer I doubt it will happen again.
Well fudge
The last one kinda fell into our lap. I’d do whatever we needed to make another one happen.
Anyone have a contact at Rise Armament? Local to BA, and I know they have done lowers in the past.
And D17 was owned by the same guy that ran 2 Vets arms. They got a contract with Academy, they pumped out a bunch of crap ARs then closed up shop and refused to warranty them. When I found out it was the same guy I sold my D17 OSA build.
Good idea
Well, actually, 2 vets was with his wife before they separated. Dean started 17 Designs and had the the contract with Sig to build their folding lowers because they couldn’t get them to work. His background was R&D for the military and got the problem solved
It was very lucrative so he put the company up for sale after that and laughed all the way to the bank. He told me in private not to say anything at the time but the contract was 36mil.

I thought Dean sold to Shield Arms? Or did they just license the design and mfr from them? Did you happen to know Dean's buddies David or Josh? They used to help assemble some stuff for him in their free time, back when it was still 2VA. I have a descendants of Sparta lower, and a IFLR lower still. I think I sold my billet lower.
