Actually I apologise I was navigating incorrectly I just figured out why I wasn't seeing all the info posted.
That is a great idea with the snake. I will pass that one along.

The Gadsen and snake would be good but careful of the snake alone,
Bushmaster might have a copyright claim /
I want in on this!!!I passed the idea along to the manufacturer. The Gadsen has been around for a couple hundred years if I remember correctly so I doubt that is copyrighted. I also thought something like "SUPPORTER OF THE 2ND AMENDMENT" would be a nice touch to the side of the lower.
I got permission to raffle off a free lower but the two they gave me do not have a caliber on them and I am not sure if that is a legal requirement or not. Once I hear from them on that issue I will be starting a post for guys to add their name for a drawing for the lower.
Tagging to keep track of possible group buy. Michiana, thanks for bring the information to everyone's attention.
Indiana has played a part in the manufacturing of many quality brands in the past.
Aero Metals of Laporte has manufactured various parts, including receivers, for Springfield Armory and Browning to name a few names. It wouldn't surprise me to learn of other Indiana businesses with similar contracts.
We certainly have the local talent to make something like this.
If people don't like the DM logo I know I can get some without the logo, just leave that spot blank. Once I get some final info this week I will put a group buy together for people in this area to pick one of these very nice lowers up for their collection and future builds. I believe in supporting local businesses as they create jobs for our neighbors. If any other dealers want to get in on this for guys out of the Indy area they are more than welcome to join in and get their own delivered directly to their place.

Just for clarification, is this going to be a raffle in the traditional sense where you sell tickets, or is it going to be a drawing? If it's a raffle where you sell tickets, I'll have to ask that you leave it off of INGO at this time.
If you guys don't want me to offer the members a chance to pick up a free lower just say so.

Interesting thread. I would seriously consider stocking another lower, especially one home grown, providing something INGO or Hoosier related is stamped. That huge DM in old script would have to go though, something much more discreet would be desireable.
