Aluminum AR180B lower. *Update DONE!*

[Armedsask]

I could go with the sticker, but thats near as much fun as making my own up.

Now for the next project, want to make a receiver that uses inexpensive FAL or G3 magazines?

Inexpensive FAL and G3 mags? Is that possible?

Also, I'm way ahead of you.

It's even more impressive if you met me in real life and see how much of a prick
I am.

Truth....


LOL

Last I looked, G3 mags were going 50 for $100 south of the border. When I was moving back to Canada, I threw an aluminum 20-round G3 mag in the dumpster because no one wanted it.

Things changed a lot after the Portuguese released their HK parts stocks. The days of expensive HK components are all gone.

Way cool build, kick ass resume. Keep up the good work, and where do we send the EMT and how long's the wait.

Hell yeah! That looks beautiful. Nicely executed.

If this can be made available to general public, it will be a viable alternative to XCR or any other gas-piston rifles in 5.56. Honestly, if I had Armed's lower, I'd go with AR180B over XCR...

I actually left out a few features due to time constraints. It will get a bolt hold open eventually.

You can hold my bolt

Punked!

 

[P0WERWAGON]

have you had the pleasure of dealing with the CFC over registering it yet?

 

[Armedsask]

It's not a firearm yet, so no.

I'll have to call the CFO one of these days and figure out if it's legal or not.

 

[BigUglyMan]

Very very nice.

Are the pics still available? Any updates?

 

[Armedsask]

I no longer maintain my file hosting service.

No updates, still haven't heard from the CFC, it's been over a year.

Can't a lower simply be investment cast using the plastic lower to form the mould? Just read through and answered my own question.
Photgraphs? Use picture trail gallery or something like that. I would like to see the lower. I don't have a 223 rifle but have been thinking if I do get one it will be a 180b.
