Dlask 80% AR lowers

[furet]

thanks, I did notice those a while back, but what had me uncertain is the fact they say "Chases and cleans the two most important threads on the AR-15/M16 receivers. ", is it also good for a yet non-threaded hole?

 

[Dr.Lector]

Where can one get the tap for the buffer tube threads?

KBC Tools (Canada), $75.

 

[Dr.Lector]

Shouldn't be any milling, just drilling and tapping.

You are right.

The front takedown pin ears need to be milled,it comes as a solid piece

You are right too.



In the last 3 years or so, Dlask's 80%'s
have different areas to be machined, depending on the run,
meaning these areas are different from batch to batch, on purpose.
Please don't ask, it is a provision
that has to do with Dlask Arms Corp only.

But that area Ronin is refering to, between ears of the front pin
is there to stay from now on,
for as long as Dlask will make 80% for sale to the public.

"is there to stay" for them to sell, and then a buyer has to modify this area ? or it is there to stay for good and you can assemble an AR as is ?

The upper won't go on without it milled out. The buyer does this.

Sorry to hijack,

but im trying to contact Dlask about some of their products, but their new site's contact form doesnt seem to work for me. Is this information from the remains of their old site correct?

Sorry for the ambiguous expression.
"Is there to stay" as in "it won't change from batch to batch".
As things are right now, every batch will have that feature.
And yes, it has to be machined (milled out).

Thanks.

As long as I know, the site is still under heavy construction.
A lot of features there won't work for the time being
(accounts, on-line store, contacts, etc.).

As far as 80% receivers go the US governments position is that the 80%receivers are firearms and thus are regulated under US state and BATFE ,that is why there are plenty of Raw Forgings available for sale as these are not a firearm.

I Disagree

An 80% frame is actually a "special case" with the BATF and comes under restrictions that apply to any metal castings that are used to form the basis for gun parts. In this case, what we are talking about is a metal casting that has been "almost" completed. It was cast, and then some of the milling work was done to it... but they stopped before they cut the slide rails (or any other combo of cuts that add up to the remaining 20% of the milling steps). Because the manufacturer stopped working on the piece BEFORE it was finished.... the piece is still in a state of limbo, so to speak.... it isn't really a "Gun" but it isn't really a raw hunk of metal either. The castings do NOT have any serial numbers or roll marks on them (normally the last step in the manufacturing process). In this form they are still considered to be just pieces of metal as far as the BATF and the Brady Bill are concerned. If the manufacturer takes them one step further... then they are subject to all the laws of the land that apply to firearms. Remember that as far as the ATF is concerned... the frame/receiver IS the firearm.... and everything else is just parts. So it is perfectly legal to order an 80% frame/receiver from the distributor and there is no paperwork at all involved. You do not need to be an FFL dealer, anyone that wants one can just call and give their credit card number and *poof* out it goes in the mail. Ok..... sounds really cool huh? So what's the catch? Well the bottom line is... YOU (and only you) have to finish the final machining process on it yourself. There are no serial numbers and the firearm (once it is complete) can NEVER.... let me say that again to be sure you understand it... NEVER, EVER be sold to anyone else.... period! It would be a firearm for "personal use only" and the only other living soul that you may legally give it to would be an heir (to your son in your will for instance). If you build your own firearm in this way, then you are acting as a firearms manufacturer which is perfectly legal as long as it is for personal use only.

Wally thanks I mis understood that however 80% recievers from the US may represent a problem for export

I just did today, you can't make an account or even contact him through the Contact Page. I keep getting an error.

I was finally able to make an account on their site. I may get one of their uppers in 10.5". I'm really liking this look:

 

[twoshots]
