C3 Defense AR Lower

[alfsauve]

A pretty good gun show in Atlanta today.   Biggest one by far in some time.   ~2000 tables.  Beats the typical Eastman show by about 3 times larger.

So the wife says, buy yourself something, but I'm not one to fritter away money, just on an impulse.....most of the time.......some of the time......once in a while!

Well anyway, I decided, that since we're a little short in the checking account dept.  I'd maybe just start building on the new AR-15 lower.   Say spend ~$150 each month till I get it built like I want.  Okay she say, buy a "gun".   So I figure that means the "lower" comes first. [Yeah she doesn't fully comprehend the lower=gun thing, so it will take some talking once I get it.]

One stocking dealer there had DPMS for $99 and Rock River for $119, BUT then I gets interested in C3 Defense lowers, cause they're local boys over in Hiram, GA, just down the road.   Milled, naked lower for $149.  Looked nice and everything.

Can't find a whole lot searching AR-15.com.   Anybody heard anything good or bad?    Several dealers had complete C3 rifles or ones they'd built on C3 lowers.   All, of course said they were real good.     Or should I just stick with RRA?   Does a milled lower buy me that much?   This is being assembled as a varmint styled rifle....I already own the upper.

I have heard that milled receivers are more solid for what you want it for.
Machined parts may be a bit more tightly toleranced.

They post on another forum that I am regular on and they seem like good enough people.  Everyone I have heard from says their receivers are very nice but I have yet to handle one myself yet.
