Can you be more specific with your train of thought?
just purely wondering what makes a lower different from any other more traditional wooden stock.
as I say, I can kinda see why an upper would be controlled, as in this case, it forms part of the relationship between the barrel and bolt. it's more of a receiver, as the barrel is attached to it and the bolt runs in it.
but what is the lower? the only thing it houses differently from a more traditional bolt action stock, is a drop in assy trigger. other guns have mag wells or magazines themselves and arent controlled.
TBH, it was an early morning rambling thought, where I thought it might be cool to get it painted up, something like this.... but it's the sort of thing that takes an hour while you wait
and no, I don't know why there aren't any 9mm cases around this 9mm rifle
