AR Lower Receiver Manufacturers (Companies) by State
I've got this crazy idea going about collecting a lower w/ roll marks from each State in this Union. I've got 5 down already. WV, IL, CT, MA, FL
I need help finding manufacturers/companies for certain states. Anyone care to help?
Here's my list so far. I know that a lot of states, like FL, CT, MA, IL, TX, have MANY, MANY manufacturers to offer. I just sort of threw the first one that came to mind (or that I was able to find) onto the list.
First, I just want to get one for each. So if you are aware of one from an unlisted state, suggest it, please. After they are all listed, I'll add all of them.
POST PICTURES OF THE STATE ROLL MARKS IF YOU HAVE THEM!

Stag Arms is pretty much CMTs retail outlet. They share facilities. Mark Malowski's (Stag president) father owns CMT.
Rhode Island and Hawaii might be hard to do.
Do FN rollmarks say VA or their manufacturing plant in SC
I think you will be having a hard time with Alaska. I am not sure if a manufacturer exists up here. Good luck with the project.
LRB New York
I can't think of any in WY.
Tx has both High Standard and Larue

Not sure. Either way I need both of those states, although I have one for VA.
Do they sell lowers?

I agree.
New Jersey as well.
I was shocked to find MD.

The ones I've seen say CT.

Thanks, that helped a bit, but I don't think all of those companies make lowers, or ones available for purchase.
Kimber, for example - do they make lowers?
Also, the pictures I've seen have LRWC in MO?

Is Nodak North Dakota?
I'm seeing MN.
Damn, no Bama yet!
I guess i will be acquiring start up capital to start a new AR company here in Alabama.....i was thinking of a fat, juicy and bold "WAR EAGLE" over the top of a diabolical looking eagle for the roll!!

There is one in Michigan but I don't recall the name.
Colt=CT
actually CT has a few others as well.
There is a guy in Seymor, CT that makes lowers with his name on them and also will make them for other companies. I have to look for his name, I can't recall off the top of my head.

Also
Socom Diamond lowers are South Carolina and the old BOHICA lowers are Colorado I believe

I would be suprised if you find one in Hawaii. "BIG KAHUNA MANUFACTURING"

CT has a bunch I've come across.
Does Colt sell lowers though?
For my project I'll have to buy the lowers so if Colt doesn't sell stripped lowers it's a no-go.
However, I'll probably add them all to the list in the end - for informational purposes.

This is the only thing I could find on Socom Diamond lowers

FWIW, I'm trying to stick with options that are currently made or recently manufactured.

I think you're referring to JV Precision, which makes LRBs lowers for them.

LWRC = Cambridge, MD

That's the place!
I meant about LaRue - you said LaRue wasn't TX marked.
Anyways, those look like nice lowers.
