Oh, they know about the problem...and they are charging to fix it...makes perfect sense.OldCannon wrote:Right.

Re: Is New Frontier a good lower receiver??
I just got back from the range after replacing my New Frontier Lower poylmer fire control group with a QMS (ALG Defense trigger group & JP enterprises 4.5 spring kit). Absolutely no light strikes or FTE with the new trigger group- 100% functional! The difference between the old polymer group and the new kit is like night and day. I'm sold.

Re: Is New Frontier a good lower receiver??
I purchased a NF complete lower recently and mated it with a DPMS AR-15 AP4 A3 Flat-Top Conversion Upper Assembly 22 Long Rifle 1 in 16" Twist 16" M4 Contour Barrel Chrome Moly Matte with GlacierGuard Handguard, Flash Hider, 10-Round Magazine The two mated perfectly, no gaps.
The one problem I ran into was with the polymer fire control group/polymer hammer. It didn't strike hard enough for the 22 rounds to consistently go off and I had dozens of light strikes with 5 different types of ammo and two different types of magazines. I'd have to reload the light-strike ammo and reshoot it for it to properly fire. I've since installed a ALG Defence trigger group and I will be testing it very soon.
