Co-worker asked me today which 80% 5.56 lower he should buy. I don't do any 80%, so I didn't really know where to tell him to buy from. So, If a friend of yours asked you where to get some 80 percenters, where would you suggest they go look.

Tactical machining if he can wait



Modulus arms had a really good sale going on for their anodized lowers at $49 ea, or $39ea if you buy 10 or more




80-lower if he's less patient and just wants to back order if not in stock they are $45-$49ea if I remember correctly.

I've only used the tactical machining 80s, they are good to go.  Work great with my Easy Jig.

I've milled 8 TM lowers using an Easy Jig, drill press and a Router. I've also done a couple 80% Arms lowers. The TM lowers were bought when they were 3 for 99.00 (I think they were cheaper then that).

If your going to do one I'd do the 80% arms lower. Its easier to mill and a much better lower, IMO

I have purchased quite a few of these lowers and finished them, they are good receivers.

If he wants to consider a polymer lower, the James Madison Tactical, JMT is a great option.
