I was contemplating another 80% AR-15/308 after completing an EP Armory lower, from back when they had the white inserts. This made it easy to complete with a dremel, you knew exactly how much material to remove. Now that that isn't legal anymore, I was trying to come up with a way to make it easy to dremel a polymer lower.
My idea is to create a "negative" of the trigger group pocket - a block of plastic or whatever material that is a perfect fit to the pocket. Then, you'd just start removing material with a dremel, inserting the negative as you go to ensure you're removing just enough material. When it fits flush into the lower you're done, drill your pin and safety holes and assemble.
Does this already exist? Didn't really know what to google.
If it doesn't, you heard it here first. I want to prototype it and try it, if it works I might start manufacturing these. I don't have a lower with a good pocket (like I said I did mine with a dremel) but if anyone knows how I can get a good negative (like molding one from an existing lower) I would be interested.
What do you think?
