Chuckling...

Moving all the worrisome world problems to the side.

Lot of reasons to use an 80% on a build. Too many to list.

So, by spending $100 on a router and another $150 or so on an 80% jig, and then milling an 80% receiver does that make someone a gunsmith or machinist or both?

I own a mill and like to learn about how mechanical things work together, possibly see room for improvement or make something that is not available. But no that doesn’t make me neither of those titles. And I agree if you looking to only do one then it’s not worth it, I get the point. I’m guessing its about what makes an individual an Assembler or a Builder.

Just to be clear, you are not agreeing with me.  I didn't speak anywhere about the value or worth of the effort. A guy wants to spend several hundred dollars on a milling effort for one or two builds all the power in the world to him.

As far as if a guy assembles or builds these ARs, if you believe it is worth your time correcting the established language of this forum and being some sort of language police have at it. Enjoy the ride.

A 0% lower is when you start out with a 8"x4.5"x1.5" block of aluminum. There are a couple threads on how to do it, if interested.

Aero Precision upper, lower, and BCG
Aero Precision Extension Tube
Strike Industries flatwire spring
Odinworks adjustable buffer
Triggertech black combat flat trigger
Blueforce Gear Vickers Padded sling
Magpul STR Stock
KNS Precision anti-walk pins.
Radians Raptor charging handle

Took it out for its first time today. No malfunctions. And it shot well (well, at least as well as I ever shoot lol).

Not sure I like the stock. Magpul stuff is always too slippery if you sweat even a little bit. Currently considering how I can remedy this. Perhaps some kind of leather wrap.

I have an assemble and a build to share.  First two, and I'd love to keep on 80's as long as I'm able.  Borrowed a buddy's router to do it so I didn't have to spend the money.

The SBR (300BLK) has a Hyperfire trigger, for some reason it took me forever to get it installed.  Got the lower on a BOGO raffle at my LGS.  Should be getting a shush-tube for it soon.  Waiting on the Diamondhead sights to ship so I can put them on.

The other was an 80%, had to go with a Vortex scope.  The muzzle break was from Durkin tactical and wasn't at all what I thought it was, still kind of cool though.

Got it out yesterday for function test and rough sight in, think I'm finally done messing around with different rifle setups. Optic is only a placeholder (waiting on a friend to come up with funds) until I get a TA31 and the radiant is going to get swapped for an OCM5. Might try swapping in a tubbs flatwire and BRT tube, rifle shot very smoothly but was pretty gassy on the internals vs my prior setups. Enough of a breeze kept me from feeling the gas but at the end of the day I noticed my glasses had a good bit of lube & carbon gunk spattered on them.

I know I'll probably suffer some wrath here for ...

But, I was literally JUST thinking about this a couple days ago and just now saw this thread so it's on my mind.   I guess I apologize.

I think you have the words "build" and "manufacture" confused.  A build is "to form by ordering and uniting materials by gradual means into a composite whole, or to cause to be constructed".   Manufacture is "something made from raw materials by hand or by machinery, the process of making wares by hand or by machinery especially when carried on systematically with division of labor, or the act or process of producing something".  The truth is most "manufacturer's" nowadays are more like "builders" because they just buy all the parts and put them together.  Not all, but a lot are that way.

I can't think of an example we use in the english language where "build" is intended to connote manufacture from raw materials.  We build houses, but we don't grow the wood and mill it to lumber.  Or melt the silica to form glass sheets to make window panes.  We build computers, but we don't individually etch the silicon wafers into chips.  Etc.  Builders assemble materials into a composite whole.  Manufacturers create things from raw materials.  Sorry, no intent to cause argument, just stuff in my head that seemed to apply.  Not even really pointed at the poster, just a convenient thing to quote.

It's a Rugged Radiant762, not one I'd honestly recommend really. It looks a bit funny because of the Manta Defense suppressor cover. It's a bit heavy, but definitely seems to retain heat well, and being able to just cut it in half for the modular section is really nice.

A work in progress. Waiting on a Sierra 5 suppressor and some other out of stock goodies. Been building them pretty much straight up black for the last 20 years so thought I'd do something with some color and I'm liking how it's coming together. If anyone knows a good anodizer that won't break the bank on small parts I'd like to make that Geissele barrel nut black as it would fit the theme better, purely cosmetic yes but that's what I'm going for in this build. Really impressed with the quality of everything here.

FCD URF-B V2 slick side upper
FCD EPC OD
Zev Tech Core Elite 10.5" Wylde barrel
Geissele MK4 Federal 10" SMR OD
Geissele Airborne SCH OD
Seekins Precison Select adjustable gas block
Arisaka Hand Stop
LaRue Index Clips
Reardon Manufacturing R2S suppressor mount/muzzle (waiting on one in the wheat/copper color to come in stock to match the barrel)
Iron City Rifle Works G3 Enhanced BCG Copperhead
As said waiting on a Sierra 5 suppressor, my first one after all these years.
Optic will be a Trijicon Mini ACOG TA44 with PA ACSS reticle or the PA SLx 3x Microprism both I already have on other rifles.
Will update when done.

@natas66 Looks fantastic. Another option on the barrel nut is Cerakote or powder coating. Either option would work for getting it black no problem.

Cheers!

Edit: Had to Google the Zev barrel. That's sweet! Bronze PVD stainless is a new one on me.

I've posted this elsewhere on the forums, but since it's a Frankenbuild I'll post it here as well. I've swapped the grip to the new Magpul K2-XL since I took this pic.

Rainer Arms 10.5" stainless QPQ barrel, G 9.5" MK8 DDC rail, YHM Turbo-K v2 on Griffin Plan A with 3 prong flash hider taper mount system.

Armaspec H2 captured buffer system, JP LMOS BCG, SA Adj gas block @ ~25% flow, HiperFire Eclips ~ 2lb single stage trigger.

This has been a slow, methodical build over the last few years. I can't even imagine what some of the clone guys spend, this is a clone of nothing and still stupid $$$.

Waiting on another tax stamp for my recent purchase, Aero M4E1 Kodiak brown anodized lower (current M4E1 is Cerakote FDE.) I need the T-shirt... "Tax Stamp Collector.."

This build started with what is now (apparently) a Unicorn.  Ascend Armory billet set for 308.  Rainier Arms 18" Stainless, fluted, Ultramatch barrel, Fortis Switchrail has a lever on the bottom for easy removal, MagPul PRS and Leupold scope, CMC Lantac FCG, Rainier NiB 308 BCG BattleComp 51.30 Suppressor mount, Geissle Charging Handle.

Shoots well, for an old fart.  Younger eyes could probably shave a little off the group shown.

@MackDaddy1962 Hey thanks for the compliment! I'm pretty excited at how it's turning out. Can't wait to shoot the damn thing. Was thinking about cerakote myself as there's plenty of people doing that in my area but hadn't thought of powder coating. I talked to a local cerakote guy today said he would do it for $40 so I think that's the way to go.

Pretty Sweet looking build you have there yourself. I wouldn't have imagined that color scheme at all but it works so well, very nice! Looks like a fun one to shoot as well.

And yeah when I saw that barrel I had to get it, something about that bronze color. Got the Black Rainbow Reardon mount as it was in stock and needed to see about clearance. It's gonna go on my other black suppressor upper and when they finally get the bronze one back in stock to match the barrel it will be pretty sweet. I don't usually do cosmetic type builds but all the available color anodizing everyone has now inspired me.
Extra pic of the barrel just because...
Cheers!

Finally figured out how to post pics on here! Since y'all asked for it ima give it to ya. This was an 11.5 pistol until the atf did their crap. Used it as an opportunity to build my dream AR with my third fave upper the block 2 from DD (the PRI mark 12 and a true FN 20" M16 with a RAS are by far the coolest but not as versatile). It's definitely not clone correct as I am going for MY personal favorite of all the tech available and although I'm not wealthy, I'll save as long as
I need to get what I want. So here goes the current build in my home defense configuration and I'll tell you what I'm getting longer term for my SPR fantasies.
aero lower, geissele 3g, radian lt, radian tal n 45 degree, k2moe, DDM4A1 block 2 upper, dead air KeyMo flash pinned, law folder, DD fixed front, Matech BUIS, Harris bipod, vltor A5 with a modified H1 buffer to account for the law extension, vltor IMOD clubbed, eotech 512, ADM QD mount, protac hlx in Arisaka scout mount, magpul XTM panels, and a spray paint job I did myself.

left in the build this month I'm getting nightforce NSX 2.5-10x42 in badger comm mount, with 45 degree offset ACRO. Once I get the optics I'm also getting an LMT EBCG (believe it or not they do exist I found some this month after 6mos of searching and of course I don't have the money for it when I find it), dead air sandman S when I have 300 to start a layaway program. When all the major parts are taken care of I also want a Norgone ambi mag release and a PDQ bolt release with a QD for the Harris.
