It’s about time a recognized manufacturer offers a good trigger lower like the Elite. Thank you Ruger!

Good lower however the mag release sticks and the bolt would release itself if the gun was bumped or tapped without that much effort! I%u2019m bummed about these two issues but I will figure out a way to get them to function properly. The 2 stage trigger is nice much better than a mil spec. The magpul grip & stock are great! Over-all opinion is I really like Ruger guns always have since I was a kid I can get over the 2 issues and fix.

The Ruger product is great. Handling of the order and customer service less than satisfactory. Shipment delayed and promised discount coupon was not delivered. This is just one of numerous orders but the only need to contact customer service.

Everything came the way it was supposed to, I am always happy with ukrguns. This product fit with my upper seamlessly and was a perfect fit. I am a very happy customer.

I have had a Ruger AR556 and was using its lower for a 300 Blackout upper I have my wife uses the Blackout to deer hunt with well she didn’t like the trigger on the 556 lower. So I bought this lower to put on the Radical Firearms upper for her and I must say the lower is really nice and has a really nice trigger. So much better trigger that I’m buying the Elite trigger to swap the trigger in the AR 556 lower. This lower is nice give it a try.

Great product. Paired with a radical arms upper with a 223 Wylde.

This Ruger lower is far better than my S&W M&P Sport in fit and finish and the trigger is a crisp 4lbs. The supplied Magpul stock and grip areare far better also.

I’m not sure what the problem is/was with the lower the previous reviewer received, but mine is fine. The Ruger Elite lower comes with the Ruger Elite 452 trigger installed, as well as an oversize trigger guard, Magpul MOE grip, and Magpul MOE SL stock. The Ruger Elite 452 trigger is worlds better than a Mil-Spec trigger. The lower is 7075 Forged Aluminum, and Type III Hard Coat Anodized. Its typical AR-15, flat black, and evenly finished. What else is there to say? Well made, works with all my uppers, has nice Magpul add ons, a very serviceable trigger, and at a price that other lowers cost, with standard furniture, and lousy triggers. Another excellent transaction with ukrguns. A

Purchased the Ruger upper from a friend for a great price. Was concerned that I would not be able to find a complete Ruger lower to match during all the pandemic chaos. At least not for a decent price, but found this one at ukrguns online and picked it up myself in Lexington. It was a perfect fit and fired and functioned perfectly. Staff help in Lexington were very gracious and helpful!

I tried several different upper receivers including Colt, BCM and Sig Sauer. None of the will work with the Ruger lower, the rear lug shims won’t fit into the cut out in the lower. Sent it back to Ruger but they claim their uppers worked with it just fine and will not guarantee that the lower will work with uppers of other brands. Still working with Ruger to get it fixed.

Highly recommend. Very nice fit and finish. The stock is really tight, no wobble at all. Trigger is way better than mil spec. Two thumbs up.
