    I bought several from Dlask and the quality is top notch. Then I bought several in our neighboring country for a 3rd of the cost shipped to me. Quality is identical but the way that 80% was done is way nicer for finishing. You really want to avoid buying one that needs the buffer tube area drilled and tapped because then you have to have some sturdy shop equipment not to mention an expensive drill bit and tap. If we can get "milspec" lowers mailed from another country for under $100, how competetive can you be?

    U.S. 80% companies will ship to Canada, as long as it is under $100.00 it is legal to import. I got a 7075 Billet Non-anodized(Plasti-dip works great) and jig from the U.S. Both items were opened and inspected by CBSA but made it through. :D

    Don't forget the satisfaction of knowing when you call to register, and they jerk you around for 6 weeks, at least you already have the lower, can finish your build and run around the house all you want :D

    I'd be very interested in a lower/jig combo.

    I do that anyway. Just make sure you lower the blinds.

    I see an uptick in federal incarceration rates. 3 years mandatory minimum in the bucket if you "forget" to register it once you machine it...

    I think the actual intent is clear. No one is buying the " I built it myself" argument. I checked out an 80% lower and you really need a milling machine to finish it properly. If a person has that kind of talent and desire, why not come up with your own new design and set the world on fire.
