PLACE HOLDER FOR LRB, MSRP IS ESTIMATED. LRB will be available from FCD dealers only.
LRB (lower receiver, B variant) is a mostly TDP spec forged lower receiver, similar to the LRA with a single difference, the ability to accept the FCD ambidextrous bolt catch, LRB retains all other features and dimensions of LRA and is otherwise identical to LRA dimensions and tolerances.
Over the years, we've become more diversified in product offerings, we've gone outside of our lane a few times, sometimes we make a splash, others not a ripple. FCD was primarily focused on AR15/M16 platform for which we now make nearly every part, LRB is one of the last missing pieces of the equation. We're not planning on making many of them, as LRB is intended as canvas to showcase the components we have developed and made for AR15/M16.
Largely based on TDP dimensions with a low shelf, LRB has a few features we wanted built on a standard forged lower receiver:
* Better access to the take down pin. This feature is already on the LRF (SOLGW and FCD collaboration billet lower receiver).
* A fence for an ambidextrous magazine catch (on the left side of the receiver), also another feature on LRF.
As with other FCD products, LRB is made for work, not for show. LRB doesn't look very different from any in spec, forged lower since looks don't have any functional purpose. There is no skeletonized parts, or fashion (lightening) pockets. A 7075 forged lower is already light. Racing stripes don't belong here (or anywhere, in our opinion, on a defense rifle.)
LRB is available through FCD dealers only.
