Area 53 Challenge Coin Lower Receivers
While I would never think of doing this, I am happy to see that Area 53 firearms offers a Challenge Coin lower receiver. Designed to fit any standard 1.75″ challenge coin, the lower receiver’s right face is countersunk to accept a coin. The install is permanent (requires epoxy to attach the coin), but would create a novel gift. Personally, I would like to see it countersunk on both sides of the receiver so one could mount two coins and see the front and back.
The Challenge Coin receiver is available now for $176 at Area53.com

Couldn't they make a removable lid/cover so that you don't need to permanently attach your coin?
The coins that mean something to me I would never alter to put on a lower. The coins I wouldn't mind altering I would never put on an AR. I guess I would just buy a branch of service coin to put on it.
