Is the best practice to obtain an 80% Nodak lower to send to Braceman? Then, finish it and send to US Anodizing?

Recently there was a post with some of Braceman's work, but I can't find it. If you have pictures of his work, would you post them? Thanks! Just so you know, he does more retro than just AR15 retro:  Attached File Attached File Attached File |

Just got these two 80's back from John on Monday. Everything went extremely smoothly and John is a great businessman. He even put up with me asking him to change which roll mark he'd put on the Colt a week or so after he received them 
Brownells A1 lower included for comparison. Now to finish them on the 5D tactical jig I ordered when it gets here and send them off to HKiller for anodizing. |

A braceman engraved nodak 80% is the way to go. It was actually cheaper for me to get a nodak 80% engraved than it was to get a finished nodak because of the insane ffl transfer fees in CA! |

I don't suppose that Braceman can engrave Colt Canada/Diemaco lower receiver markings? Looks like he knows his Colt/H&R.
I plan on cloning some special maple syrup rifles in the future and I'm looking for someone. |

and for shiggles, some of the Colt lower. 
You'll appreciate this; sanded off that pesky forge code
Progress continues. The upper and lower will be off to HKILLER soon for anodizing. |

Braceman did this for me, but since i live in Occupied Commiefornia, did not do an auto labeling, or a fake pin.

Quote HistoryQuoted:
You probably know this, but you should anodize before routing. Otherwise, you, your vendor, all have potential issues with ATF. A gunsmith is required to keep track of the serial number of a real firearm, but if it is 80%, nobody cares. You can always use a shake and bake for the interior. Quote HistoryQuoted:

80 percent lowers that are finished out aren't real guns? Huh........I didn't know that! Guess I'll have to remove mine from the NFA Registry. |
