Radian is live on Instagram at the moment taking questions.

They just said stripped uppers should be available in 3 weeks. Stripped lowers (with Talon safety) in 6-8 weeks. Price point on lowers quoted at around $400.

Good news all around for high quality parts. Can't wait.

From what I've seen on Instagram, they lowers look the same as the AXTS version, just different markings.

Exactly. It's the AXTS lower remarked. I paid $400 for my lower several years ago. That they will sell for the same again with a safety is good news.

They mentioned opportunity to purchase with unique cerakote options in the future too.

Need AX762, or whatever they want to call it.

I think they would also do well if they released a basic lower, but with the A-DAC, like their/Rainier's old A-DAC-F. The Redi-Catch is cool and all, but still not as nice as having it straight up integrated into the lower. I'm sure they're not hurting for money though, so whatever.

I've been waiting for the stripped uppers and handguards and about 3 weeks was what I was told by their VP of Business Development. They just ordered packaging for the stripped parts and just shipped out the parts to have them anodized. My fingers are crossed that it 3 weeks..... but if history is any indication it could be several more months.

Not uppers or lowers but this was in their IG stories.

Here is what a Radian looks like, and to me the only changes are the markings, which is a good thing. I asked yesterday when we would see a Radian upper that would mate with standard parts. I don't have an answer quite yet, but hopefully it is something that is in the works.
