Many of you gun afficionados know what an 80% AR-15 lower is.
While the following question has been posted on specific firearm web sites, many sporting men don't have the machining ability or equipment to finish these AR-15's.
Since many have discovered that the BATFE allows the personal manufacture of AR type rifles, for personal use (non-resale) finding 80% lowers have been difficult.
Have any machinists on this board been interested in a $120 80% AR lower but could not find one?
Can you chime in if you are interested in a 80% AR 308 (DPMS compatible) priced around $140? I am trying to get a feel for the market with machinists on this board.
Shipping would be around $15 via UPS.
Please no thread crapper's, but I am eager to hear if there is enough interest in the marketplace.
A MAJOR manufacturer for complete and 80% AR-15 lower receivers has just been busted by the BATFE for bribing a defense contractor. I have a feeling this may open up the 80% market.
