Thinking about buying an 80% polymer Ar lower has anyone bought one? With the jig would it be easy to complete... I do have access to a milling machine.. Although the receiver would just stay uncompleted as a paper weight
 
Would be a paper weight for now but will slowly buy a bunch of components to build one then may finish it and get it serialized and register it
 
I wanna hear about how many people actually completed the project and if it actually functions....read an article a while back about a guy who messed up 5 of these and they never amounted to anything but scrap
 
Well was reading and sounds like some ppl have completed them with a power drill or router or drill press and can see that going very bad.. Lol if I ever complete it will use a milling machine but who knows mine could turn to scrap
 
What is the point in Canada? Lowers are cheap and it is not worth the hassle.

The only reason I would buy one down here is legally you do not have to do any paper work or even put a serial number on it. Having a blank lower would be pretty sweet IMO.

But since stripped lowers are $60 I haven't seen the point yet.
 
If you are to buy a paperweight why not buy an aluminum one?

Even more so if he's actually going to finish it down the road.

There is exactly one company that makes polymer lowers that are actually functional (the lower is designed as a poymer lower, the stock is an integral part), everything else is complete crap.
