Polymer lower [grin]
One point sling [hmmm]
Pistol upper [thinking]
Big ass can [sad]

How do you dispose of a junk receiver ?

burn it, it's polymer, I guess that's a feature!

Super glue and it"ll be good as new.

my response to him was, "that'll buff right out"

Do you know the approximate round count on the lower?

No, I have limited info through facebook but I'm going to email him. Maybe get him on NES. I think it was working fine--until that can got added.
 
That lower should be returned to the manufacturer I am sure it will be replaced for free.

Worcester's buyback.

Who made the lower?

Yes, who?

3D printer lower gone wrong haha

Maybe it was a misprint, or out of toner.

Or you just skip the polymer lower and buy something that has a good ****ing reputation. This probably saw round 200 and gave out.

He should get his money back and run away from that company.
 
Doesn't New Frontier offer lifetime warranty on their lowers?

Also, isn't that right around where the first or second 3d printed lower fail?
 
I wonder if having the added gas pressure of the can had anything to do with it

yeah, that's the idea. polymer lowers aren't so strong. That one point seems kind of torquey. Then the pistol uppers are notoriously overgassed. Then that can makes it go to 11
