$180 is a bit higher than what lowers typically go for right now, but it's not unreasonable if the quality is there.

Seems to be unnatural, at least to me, for the hair to be facing the back of the rifle. I'd like to see it flipped the other way around. Either way, I dig it.

This is great. Politically charged hardware turned into a political cartoon. If that's not modern art I don't know what is. It's functional AND eloquent.
The themed lowers aren't my style, but some of the designs are interesting. I like the pirate. The colored snowflake model is pretty funny. Honey badger is a bit dated, but still a classic.
I have no idea if Spike's tactical & others are seeing increased sales of lowers due to the themed models, but it seems like a reasonable marketing plan. Even after with a handful or four of AR-15s sitting unused in the safe, some people still want to build more.
It's too bad the Trump-themed ARs won't be viewed by the people who will bristle the most by their very existence.
