80% lowers people,

I have tried to get in contact with company's that sell the lower receivers in a machined 7075 billet with no avail, i still would like to do this and do not see any major concerns of strength of the 6065 billets over the 7075's
i di get into contact with 80percentarms they seamed very helpful and being that hardly any one has them in stock, i would rather deal with these guys through the ordering process then some of the others. so this is how it will go, we will collect a list of people that want to partake in this and what they would like to order, we will get a discounted price per persons order, if you are getting a lower or multiple lowers there will be a surcharge that will be added on if you plan on using the jig to machine these out, the amount of the surcharge will be found by taking the total number of lowers that will need to be milled out with the jig divided by the cost.

so if we have 10 total lowers being purchased, 3 are yours, and the jig + spare bits cost say 180$ that will be 18$ surcharge for the jig per lower and with your three lowers your surcharge will be 54$...

they have lowers in black, raw finish, pink, and foliage dark earth (brown), along with uppers in the same colors, they also have ar10 lowers.

they are back ordered on some things and the order will only ship once everything is in stock so dont expect to be doing this here in the next 2-3 weeks, this was more intended to be a winter project anyways when we cant get out to go play.

discounts are listed on their website when you go to an item so lets try and order like items (pink is not suitable for an ar15 just to let you know, unless you want to be judged )

Thanks! He's super lazy now. IIRC he is 8-9 which is borrowed time for that breed. But he just sleeps 23 hours of the day and eats and goes to the bathroom the other hour

 

LOL, his paws, head and shoulder is freaking insane. Hey can you take a picture of your antenna mount with the bed open. I need some ideas for antenna mount

 

Yeah he's massive in the front but the rest of his body is super tiny ha. Uh yeah I'll see if I can find take some more.

About to get in class so I'll snag some after

Don't pay it. There will be no consequences because there's no way that can prove you got the ticket unless they serve you in person, which they won't.

I spray the underside of my truck after I go on a trail, and always keep the interior clean...but I've never "washed" it in the traditional sense.

@thefatkid and @teamhypoxia if you guys were dead set on getting 7075 it sounds like they might be able to make some for you at an added cost. Let me know if thats your make or break on this and ill call them tomorrow.

 

Interesting thread (with a little bit of drama) over on CO AR-15 on this topic: https://www.ar-15.co/threads/158598-80-lower-Question

 

Could I use the jig if I already have a blank?

 

Also. I picked up this ARB bumper for a steal today. @chenbro who color matched your's for you? I'm torn on prepping it since I really like the color match but this one is in better shape than I expected and I may just go ahead and put it on.

 

if you wana get rid of it instead of going through all that work of color matching it or installing it, ill take it off your hands

 

And my new toy

 

Becca does that get you tow points or can you mount a winch on it too?

 

just ripped that packaging off like a dress on prom night didn't ya.

 

Tow points I opted out on the receiver
I figured if I want a winch I'll go with a plate bumper

At least you guys can drag me around now

 

I had mine powder coated at Premium Powder Coating in Longmont, but just about any place should be able to do it. Just ask to look at some silver color swatches and hold them up to your truck in sunlight/shade to find the best match. Make sure you do at least one clear coat. I think on mine I had them blast it down to bare metal, then one color coat and two coats of clear.

 

Ya that shit was packed well and it took me a good 20 mins to open it
Surprise surprise!!!!!
