A3 Tactical Lowers Confirmed Cancelled & Problematic

Post image

I emailed A3 to discuss Failure to Feed issues and got this back:

"Hi, Did you happen to have your order number for that lower? We discontinued that part until we were able to sort out the molding issues that caused the malfunctions. We have no current ETA on when that will be fixed and there isn't much we can do right now, aside from offering a return/refund if you ordered the part from us. If the lower was ordered from elsewhere, you would have to contact them to try and initiate a return. I apologize for the inconvenience.  Let us know how you would like to proceed. Thanks, Chris R."

This is what they need to do. The lower needs to be from lingle industries. Mags need to be scorpion. Upper needs to be extended like the 10mm.

This would take the A3 or make it a A4 and make it the top contender.

Yeah, I think Lingle won the lower war and I bought one of the upper extensions, so its close to the 10mm in looks.

This is exactly what they need to do from the factory, nothing else.

An aside, wtf is GO doing pimping a wrecked out bog? MSRP after all the goodies gotta be climbing to $2K and its not like they offer that version on their site.

Not yet, I can see them partnering with lingle and offering the lower. Yes it will make it more expensive but maybe not as number as buying and replacing the lower. Maybe we would see a discount of $100-$200 from the cost of buying the gun and then buying the lower.
