My wife agreed to a new build. IF IT WAS PINK AND FOR HER!! So... My eyes are bloodshot and I'm googled to death. I know I've seen em somewhere, but , does any one know where to get "pink" furniture for an ar?

we(she) decided that PINK furniture will be enough. And thanks gomopar440 for the hello kitty Idea, she wouldn't have it any other way

LOL! No problem. I just Googled "Pink" and "AR" and that was one of the first links to come up.

Another Cav arms AR in pink

In addition to the Cavalry Arms MKII lowers, available in a multitude of colors, they also offer grips, tele-stocks, and handguards in pink for standard AR lowers.

Cavalry Arms is a great company that has fallen on hard times because of legal problems. Support for Cav-Arms means supporting the second amendment. They have always supported the right. Great guys, founded by a persian gulf veteren, I encourage you all to help those guys out.

Agreed

I h@te to sound like an ad for Cavalry Arms, but they have a wide line of products. Buying any of it helps. Firearm lobbying groups have not come to thier aid, it is up to us, the consumers, to help them. From furniture kits for standard lowers, to medical kits, to MKII lowers, forged lowers and complete firearms. There is somehing for evveryone in thier inventory. Buying Cavalry Arms products is not a selfless act, you will still be getting great products at reasonable prices.

While that is very true, we need to speak out to the firearm lobbying groups and let them know we don't appreciate them not providing any kind of aid.

Agreed, when I was the NRA show, I spoke with an NRA big whig rep, (can't remember his name) and asked him about it. He had heard of the incident, but did not know whether the NRA would take any action. I with many others have written numerous letters to various pro-RKBA groups and Arizona politicians. Even Arizona senator John McCain recieved a letter from me, and many others. Although he is probably a bit to deep in the election to even begin to help.

Being manufacturers of "plastic" guns scares the misguided public. You remember the fuss they made about Glocks, now it's "An Assualt Weapon that will get through a metal detector! OMG!"

You might be surprised to know, but a lot of us have tried to persued many groups and people with power into helping. And it never made it onto the radar.

What happened with Cav Arms? I never heard the story.

I guess that kinda proves your "never made the radar" statement huh?

Kinda,

In short, Cavalry Arms was partially manufacturing thier lowers off site from where their manufacturers license is held. They had permits to do this so long as a company rep was present and over saw production. The way they make thier lowers is in injection molding machines. The reciver is made in two halfs and NOT serial numbered and documented. The partially made two halves are shipped to the place where the firearm manufacturing is completed, and the two halves are joined, documented with accordance of the law and serial numbered, They had done this process several times in the presence of ATF audits. In the past all of the investigating agents ruled that thier operation was legal, this has all been documented. On Feb. 27th the ATF had agents at the injection molding shop that was outsourcing Cavalry Arms partial recievers. When the first reciever was made, like it had always been LEGALLY, the ATF agents present arrested the Cavalry Arms company rep for "Manufacturing an Illegal Weapon" (even though this process had been previously approved by the ATF)

Like always, the ATF changes the laws, never needing authorization from any of the legislative branches. They failed to notify Cavalry Arms of thier change in rules for manufacture. The ATF raided thier warehouse and office seizing tons of inventory, and taking all the pertinent paper work the manufacturers needed to do thier jobs.

It's been roughly 160 days since the ATF has raided the Cavalry Arms facility. No arrests have been made, no charges have been filed, no inventory has been returned. The ATF would have effectively destroyed the Cavalry Arms business with no proof or even accusations of criminal activity. The only reason they exist is because many of us saw how badly they got screwed and started buying thier stuff left and right, even when we didn't want it.

There was a Cavalry Arms lower bake sale of sorts that had been going on for some time. 1000 units marked Cav-Aid and numbered 1-1000 were made, in varying colors. (no pink though)

I bought two, you can read about my Cavalry Arms lower builds In this thread

There are still several more Cav Arms items I fully intend to buy.
