Lancer products

[KamikazeKnifer]

Jesus Christ, their lowers are expensive. I'd be game for some mags.

You guys make me laugh! Lancer products are used in 3gun. No it's not the cheap $55 lower that everyone wants to collect. I'd rather have one quality rifle then five nickle and dime rifles since I only have one trigger finger. If you like to collect mags then have at it. But to knock a company that is willing to give local gun owners a deal is not cool.

Who is knocking them?

Where?

Point it out.

[JMIS]

Let's see, they show 6 products on their website, one of which is a complete rifle. Unless the discount is huge, I don't see a strong interest in an expensive rifle. Same with the lowers.

That leaves five products.

Of those, I can't imagine a ton of interest in shotgun tube extensions.

That leaves:
Single Point Sling Mount
Magazines
Carbon Fiber Handguards

Sling mounts are a dime a dozen and not everyone wants a single point mounting system.
Hand guards are a very personal item and again there are a multitude of handguards on the market. Finding a large amount of people who want the same kind (and likely a pricey one) is unlikely.




There you have it. "Magazines" are the winner.


Or perhaps a discount could be arranged for ANY of their products?
Hmmmmmm...

Well, how about your comment? If you're interested in mags then say I'll take some mags. If not there's no need to nickle and dime everything.

Also if you shoot multi gun in PA, you'd see that Lancer hands out mags and handguards at local matches besides sponsoring major multi gun matches across the US. They give back to the shooter.

Ummm... there was nothing in there criticizing Lancer whatsoever.
I was simply pointing out the obvious as it relates to a "group buy".

It makes more sense to try for a group buy of products that 200 people are interested in than 12 people.

EVERYONE wants/buys magazines.

Not everyone wants/can afford a $500 lower.


EDIT: My apologies.
Their website isn't the greatest layout and I mistakenly identified the lower with the $579 price tag when in fact that price belongs to the complete lower with stock/grip/etc.
It appears that their lowers are around $200 MSRP

$500 lower? Maybe a complete lower and thats MSRP. I've never paid MSRP on a gun product.

You never know, five handguards and two hundred mags could still work

[MSMachine]

A pair of mags with included mag cinch would be a nice little combo if possible.

And your vote for the group buy would be?

[normanvin]

Might be interested in some mags.
