I need some information. I'm sorry for asking a question that has probably been beat to death on this forum.<o></o>

I am going to put together a couple of AR's from stripped lower receivers. I haven't paid any attention to black guns in a long time. Things have changed a lot and I have found that there are now a boatload of choices that didn't exist two decades ago.
Questions. <o>

</o>
What is the best lower on the market that will work for both the 6.8 and the 5.56? Price isn't important in this question. I will buy specifically for each caliber.<o>

</o>
What is the best lower for the price, 6.8, 5.56?<o>

</o>
What brands should I totally avoid?<o>

</o>
This is a 12-month project and these guns will be kept for my own use. I'm a smith but because of the ignorant laws I have avoided all black guns for the last 25 years and there are some huge holes in my AR knowledge.<o>

</o> Thanks for your time and the benefit of your experience.<o>

thanks for the links

I'm starting with a C3 lower. What do you folks suggest for a lower parts kit? I'm looking for top quality in this rifle. If anyone knows where I can find a 6.8 and a 5.56 flat tops W/bolt, flip up sights and 20" barrels let me know. After I get this one in my hands I'll figure out the parts for my kids rifle. He really wants a 6.8 to hunt blacktail deer with.
Thanks for the help.
