With the exception of the buffer tube, I can't think of any components in the lower receiver that would even be affected by higher pressure.
Anyway, I am not aware of any AR-15 lowers that are built specially for military-grade ammo and others built to handle civilian ammo (which isn't to say there's no difference between an M16 and an AR-15 lower, but those differences have to do with ability to fire on automatic, not ammo types).
