    I grew up just south of there so I am very familiar with that particular clusterfuck of an intersection.

    One time we got a photo ticket when we got back from a vacation. It was obvious that it was not us. It was our house sitter. If you read the ticket there is a section where you "nominate" the driver with their address and send it back in. About 4 weeks later our house sitter got the ticket in the mail.

    That one and Bowles/Santa Fe and Mineral/ Santa Fe all cluster fuck with red light runners. Almost seems worse since before the camera were installed. But that could be pure volume now a days.

    A speed van got me once in foco before I knew they were there. Dumbest look on my face lol. I paid it. I always spotted them after that though. My favorite is the people that get mad at you for slowing down and whip around you only to get flashed lol

    I'm personally not a fan of intersection ones because I find more people cause accidents slamming on the brakes as soon as the light turns yellow.

    So the 4.7 part still leaves the window open to serve a warrant on the person as a few above stated that happened to them. It's not worth the labor to do so but a municipality could choose to do so. Or at least that is how I am reading it.

    x2 thats when accidents happen the most. Somebody isn't paying attention and you slam on your brakes for a yellow light and bam. I usually just run the yellow light if I see it

    I read about a guy who continued to give the camera the finger as he hauled ass by, he got served. I think they choose who to serve with some discretion. If you live and work in a secure building being served can be difficult when the phone intercepts most interactions before they occur

    Better to ask what I have not done.
    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 :D (pink is not suitable for an ar15 just to let you know, unless you want to be judged )

    http://www.80percentarms.com/collections/80-lowers


    please list your user name and what items and quantity you want

    1. . @3378jakesr5 1 raw ar15 lower, one black ar15 lower, one FDE ar10 lower, one FDE ar15 upper, one FDE ar15 lower, (dont judge thats for me, uncle, and father:luvya:)
    2. @YamaDirtrider 1 black ar15 lower
    3. Co Mtn Steve- 1 black ar15, 1 FDE ar15
    4. .
    5. .
    6. .
    7. .
    8. .

    ..

    please quote the most recent list to add to it so no one gets cut out, and delete the quoting parts so its an actual post and leave all details of this on the post


    Bump!

    So for slow folk it's a group buy where one could get a lower and use a community jig to complete?
