Not plating, they look to be still "in the white". Is it some type of high speed engraving? I didn't realize they did any of that submerged but it looks like there's some type of machining going on.

The mag well of the receivers were being cut by wire EDM

Laser engraving is used for something else on our lower, I can't wait to show you guys

Just make sure to do the deep laser engraving so I don't lose the coolness of whatever logo it is when I have it blasted and Cerakoted.



Oh... and post a f*cking picture so I can decide if I want to wait to file the Form 1 for my next SBR!

Given what some may consider unreasonably high standards we hold, the roll mark and engraving exceeded our expectations.

Photos have not done it justice.

The statements above should hopefully suffice till we're able to release pictures

Okay... Tell me this... Am I going to lose any logo detail by blasting and Cerakoting?



I.E. Is all the custom engraving/marking deep?



Are they marked SAFE/FIRE or pictograms?

The depth is to BATF specs, we are contemplating more depth to accommodate the minute thickness anodizing will add.

Selector positions will be pictogram, 3 position, and 45/90 compatible not only for semi auto selectors but for customers with DIAS as well (0-50/90-180)

Okay. Looks like I'm waiting on this Form 1 then. But hurry up! All this talk of NFA rule changes has got me twitchy!

If you need to get one, don't let us hold you up, you know how long we take to do anything but in the end it'll be worth the wait  We don't release something unless we're happy with it, and so the receiver project has taken us 9 months thus far to get to where we are, though we're almost there, we still can't quote a firm ETA...

Gimme a few weeks before releasing it.... I need to recover from Christmas, and I don't want them to sell out before I can get one!  

BTW, I know you've said it's going to be low shelf, but will it have the thick SP1-style side wall on the right side, or will it have two thin walls?  A DIAS will fit in either one, but it has more lateral support when the SP1 "hump" is there.  Here's a pic of the difference:

SP1 spec, we are engraving AUTO pictogram on the receiver for the same reason: to make it usable with RDIAS

Maybe the lower will incorporate AXTS's A-DAC feature?

I noticed AXTS removed the forged lower from there website.

Perhaps BAD is going to be producing them now?

No A-DAC feature, it's a possibility down the road though, we just want to get a super high quality forged lower out first, it's easy to add on options later

So f-ing in!



Just got another BAD-ASS (I think that makes an even 10 now) and EPS (only my third set) in the mail yesterday, so a lower seems like a no-brainer.

Any chance you guys will have your LPK's ready by the time these are released? Now that would be epic!

The EMR rapid prototypes were just sent out to testers last week.  During the Christmas holidays, USPS takes longer to deliver, folks are just now receiving them.

The polymer rapid prototype units can't have fine threads, so the purpose is test out the theory behind the change we made to the mag release button, as it can't be installed and used.

So far the reception has been good, and we are sourcing material in order to commence production.

Meanwhile, we're working with Seekins to make a Battle Arms version of the Seekins bolt catch, but we'll release the Battle Arms LPK before the bolt catch is complete, as between the Seekins original and Battle Arms versions, there are only minor functional and cosmetic differences.

Re: release date for either, we typically don't quote ETA unless we know for sure.  We don't want to be a part of the "2 weeks, every 2 weeks" joke lol.

The last example of which can be demonstrated by the release of the EPS (enhanced pins set), when they were announced, folks could actually order them and receive them without undue delay.   We had the products in hand, but waited till at least a few dealers had acquired them before announcing it to ensure multiple buying sources were available.

Please tell me the Battle Arms versions of the mag release and bolt catch will offer a serrated texture vs the Seekins diamonds? I've kept an eye on the progress of your LPK and then I see these epic Lowers... Can't help but think how perfect of a match these are going to be!

I for one dont care if it comes with this feature. Theres already one lower that costs $430, dont need this one to jump in price just because of that very same feature.  I look forward to whatever you put out duff. You guys have yet to let me down.
