I just looked back and, for each of my last three orders, they charged $8, including ones going to my FFL.
Ive got some consecutive serial number Mega Gator lowers that I bought about 10 years ago, I did buy some stripped uppers but I wish I would have bought one for each lower. They do look good together
I wish I’d picked up one or two more uppers and lowers too before they all disappeared.
Are your lowers marked “Mega Arms” or “Mega Machine Shop”?
Mega Machine Shop Inc Tumwater Wa, The serials are in the early 3000 s
Nice! I haven’t seen any with those markings in a lot of years. That’s why I had to ask when you said you got them 10 years ago.
They’ve been marked “Mega Arms LLC, Centralia WA. USA” for a long time now.
Yours are definitely hard to find now!
I may have a spare Mega AR15 upper. I bought several matched billet upper/ambi lower combos a while back, and I'm now considering putting one of the lowers on a new 22" Cross Machine and Tool .224 Valkyrie upper. It is amazing how well the CMT billet upper matches the MEGA Arms billet lower design. My original plan was to use the CMT barrel, CMT 15" HDX M-Lok rail, CMT muzzle brake, and CMT BCG with the Mega upper/lower, but after seeing how well they mate, might just use the complete CMT upper.
Image below is the Mega billet lower on the CMT billet upper. Lines look pretty good to me.
CMT again, on the Mega lower, opposite side, showing port cover and BCG markings. Again, lines seem to work well, with nothing standing out as being an obvious mis-match of designs.
MEGA upper and lower below. Good lines and GREAT fit, as with the CMT.
This last picture shows three stock images of the CMT upper, with one pic on the right that I took of the barrel and muzzle brake markings.

- Would this CMT upper on a MEGA lower knock me out of the Mega Fan Club?

HA!

is the club president, you'll have to ask him!How well does the CMT match where the buffer tube threads in? This is usually where I see the worst mismatch, even if everything else looks good.

That looks pretty close! Me personally, I like seeing the Mega branding on the upper and lower together, but you shouldn't let my opinion sway you; I've always liked CMT parts and have been wanting to try a lower/upper combo from them!
