you will be fine, I have an Aero Upper on my AWS Zombie lower and it fits great.Stupid question: Any problem or weirdness putting an Aero M4E1 upper (from Schuyler) on a fairly generic forged AR15 lower? Will it look right? Or is that a terrible mismatch? I don't have a matching Aero M4E1 lower and too late now to obtain one without paying post-8/1 crazy money.

truly depends upon to a degree of how far from a generic spec such lower would be. ar15s are fairly standardized dimensions wise, so, let`s say, it would be uncommon to experience a lot of issues. aero lowers have some nice features that makes them worth the extra - an adjustment bolt to remove wobbling of the upper, and some other minor but very nice things.
Yeah, the Monstrosity anti-2A law changes everything in terms of the affordability of lowers... especially if you have one particular lower in mind.
What I was going to say: "AR15's are EXACTLY standardized, dimension-wise."
Buy a Microtech or Kershaw. Screw Benchmade.
If one really wants a Benchmade, buy one from wish.com and pay $32.90 instead of $329.00. That's the only way to guarantee that no AR15's were melted to make the knife.

are they all fake replicas there, or real ones?If one really wants a Benchmade, buy one from wish.com and pay $32.90 instead of $329.00. That's the only way to guarantee that no AR15's were melted to make the knife.
Figures. Some show having d2 steel blades, so may not be complete crap.
Fakes. Some are decent, however. I bought a custom version of the Bugout with carbon fiber scales and a damascus blade. Looks like the real deal, the damascus is real, and it holds a razor edge for a LONG time. I think it would be ~$350 if legit but I paid 10X less. It's been a damn good knife and works well for pocket carry in dress pants for work.
I was a legit microtech dealer. I got a clone halo. It’s pretty damn good!
A real Damascus for $20-$30 sounds a bit too much good to be true. Dunno. If I would get one I would always have double thoughts.
Don't trust what they say, I bought a knockoff Benchmade OTF few years ago and it claimed it had s30v steel. XRF testing showed it's actually 420 stainless. I'm not mad for the $15 I paid for it.Figures. Some show having d2 steel blades, so may not be complete crap.
But, a fake knife jewelry is just too much.
