Get a hold of Right to Bear Arms and see what they may be able to do for you, I have used a lot of their 80% lowers and always been happy with them.

I've used: Tactical Machining Thunder Tactical DS Arms (exceptional quality) Daytona Tactical 80% Arms (billet only, exceptional quality) AR Stoner and a few others I don't remember. 'had an equal experience with all of them when it came to cutting and functioning. |

I've cut a few and they were fine. Anodizing was good, everything was in spec and functioned. I'm not going to say "all 7075 80% lowers are created equal" but that's my experience for the most part.

Yes, I have done five personally. (Daytona Tactical) Probably another 20 by friends that have ordered. I got my first batch about 4 years ago, they were being made by a company called A O precision. Not to be confused with aero precision. AO has a history of doing contract work for Daniel Defense and a couple other companies at the time. If they are still made by AO, buy without hesitation.

Brownells have Matrix Arms lowers. For $40 or so. Very nice quality. I have done 2 so far with my 5D jig.
