    80% lower question

    I've been out of the loop for awhile, so forgive this question.

    Where is the best place I an purchase an 80% lower? Plus, where the heck can I finish it at?

    Please IM me with the information. Thanks.

    I want to build one last rifle and would like to use an 80% lower.

    Next question: How good are these and where can I finish the lower at?

        So you have to have your own tools now?? I remember that some people would go to some shops and just push the button on the CNC machine.

          I'm not gonna dump that much money into buying the jigs and other crap. So much for my 80% lower.

            This is what is making me want to get a nursing degree, so I can just leave the state and go to either Oregon, Idaho or Utah.

              Google 80% lower and you should find at least a few options, all at a more reasonable price than that.

                Thanks for the advice, but I don't think I'm going to even bother anymore, as I thought I could just go to a shop and finish it there. I didn't know that things have changed and that you have to use your own tools now. I don't think I want to invest in buying what I need to finish the lower. BS, bro.

                    Sounds like buying a stripped lower is your answer.

                      I love these threads.



                      Thinks parties are still going.

                      Doesn't bother to check the deals or vendors section for cheap lowers.

                      Thinks 80% is a cheaper way to go.

                      Then complains how it's BS, but has done nothing I can see to keep up with the laws.

                      And I would guess....has done nothing to help us in the fight for 2A rights here in California either.

                        My wife got here BSN degree in 05, she had her AS degree before that and has worked as an RN since 94-95.

                        Since OB care has started, RN's are in higher demand then ever before.

                        Buy the tools and jig and make your own guns
                        It takes a lot of balls to play golf the way I do.

                          Do it! My wife had to take a job in Kansas when she first got her nursing degree. It looks like the job market still sucks here in that field.

                            Well, geez, there, sunshine, thank you very much for the asshat response. What got your panties in a bunch?

                            The ONLY reason I was asking about an 80% lower was because I wanted to put together one last rifle and didn't want to go through an FFL. I had no need to "keep up" with WTF was going on with 80% lowers, as I wasn't interested in them, till now. Cost was also not an issue. How the hell did you even come to that conclusion? Lol.

                            And, yes, I have been active in trying to get people to join pro-Cali gun groups, the NRA and just trying to keep them abreast of general gun issues in this state. As a matter of fact, I'm going to put flyers together to pass out at my gun range that will inform people about the THREE bills that are being proposed to target our so-called assault rifles.

                            Forgot to add that I also just recently donated money to FPC and the NRA.
