I have started a 80% lower build. The lower is completely milled now. I have purchased a Del-Ton kit RK101.
Also have a PSA lower parts kit to use instead of the one from Del-ton. This is a Magpul grip and Magpul trigger guard, both OD Green.. I'm looking at the Cerakote coating to apply to lower receiver and maybe upper reciever in OD Green. Waiting on weather to break to complete in a friends garage that isn't heated. |

Here are 2 pics of lower and one of kit before I start.

Thank you for the heads up. Good Idea of the FCG. I was wondering about how cerakote on pins etc to make a nice job.
Also reading about marking the lower ss per GCA 1968 or required by CFR 478.92 http://law.justia.com/cfr/title27/27-2.0.1.2.3.6.1.2.html Any advice or help on this subject? |

You would have been better off to have had it engraved prior to completion because at that point in time, it was just a chunk of metal. Now it is a functioning receiver, and some engravers will not work on completed lowers that are blank. It has to be treated as a firearm when shipping which means that USPS is out of the question.
I have sent receivers off to be engraved, and I used a etch-o-matic to engrave some of the lowers I completed. Do a search on here and on the web for a guy named Vader Spade, he has engraved lowers for me and done outstanding work. He also has some do it yourself threads on here. Some folks don't like to put anything on their lowers, I am from the school that it is better to have something on there in case the man becomes involved in your life, and they want to know what you doing with the "ghost gun". |
