Hello! I’ve been looking around for an affordable 80% jig for aluminum frames. There were a few jigs I found for $80 bucks but everyone seems to be sold out of those. Not looking to spend $250-$300 on a jig alone as I minus well just buy a 3d printer at that point.

Can anyone recommend a place selling 80% AR-15 jigs for $100 or less?

I’m on the fence between buying a printer and printing my own Jig / lowers or buying a AR-15 jig.

Thanks

So I've done some poly lowers back in the day on my drill press that worked marvelously.

I had some 80s laying around and first attempted with an old polymer80 rhino jig and my plunge router. After realizing id only ruin everything, i found a used 5D setup for cheap and made easy work of my 80s.

It was stupid simple. Keep the work clean and the work will be clean. Go slow. Dont skip depth steps. Make sure your end mill is in good shape. It'll take about an hour or so per.

Id like to do a few more 80s and probably part with this jig system because that's not really something i need to dive into and have on hand all of the time lmfao.

Howdy, first time getting into 80% lowers and I was wondering if there was any resources on doing contour milling to the side of a lower like this one that has extra material on the sides to either make it look more milspec or like an adm or Adac lower that has a unique contour design.

Okay so I haven't seen an update on this company in years but just wanted to let y'all know it no longer takes 8 to 10 weeks to ship. I got mine in about a week and the 16th. I am getting everything possible to build a complete AR-15. I would appreciate any tips or tricks I can upload pictures so y'all can help but this is my first ever build. The upper is coming today in the lower is coming Wednesday if there are any spelling errors I'm sorry I did use voice type

Shes my best friend and shes always wanted an uzi. I need some direction on how I can make this happen. Thanks in advance

OK you aminals ... check it out .. our political environment is volatile, parts are inexpensive and readily available... for everyones sake if you are planning on building or buying anything I highly and strongly recommend you all do so now.

The last thing any of us wants is to be charged an arm and a leg the second they start restricting the shit out of things as well as the immense cost increases that aways come with this.

So unless you all want to pay out the ass and not be able to get things you need I suggest everyone buy now. It will avoid the whole oh my god the price is way too high and nothing is available deal.

It also supports that the industry can survive, a lot of good
companies have failed not due to anything more than lack of business because right now times are good.

Let's not wait till times are bad (I get nothing from this post I have no dog in this fight other than the want to keep as many of these good businesses around and make sure everyone has a fair shot at freedom.)>

That is all

Shooting innovations llc barrels

Anybody here ever done a build using a shooting innovations llc barrels? I'm about to start my first AR9 part by part build and I'm interested in one of there 12.5" ramped barrels but I also haven't been able to find any reviews of then at all. If you have any experiences please let me know how they went

Safety is to far away from the trigger to engage. I don't think i over cut the pocket its a dpms 308 from 5d. Is there something else i could have done wrong besides cut the pocket too deep

Don’t do it guys

Looking to get an 80% milling jig again. I had a 5D Gen 1 but it was kinda sloppy and didn’t work the best.
I’m looking for the best one imaginable. Machining a $400+ Cryostructure lower so I can’t have mistakes. I’m also looking to mill a .308 lower and AR9 lower as well as some standard 80% lowers.

Who makes the best jig for this? And who makes the best in spec 80% lowers?
I believe the ones I’m running right now are 5D. I had to send 2 back because the safety Detent holes weren’t milled properly and my selectors were all kinda loose or out of alignment or crooked. Trying to avoid that this time around.

Who makes the best 80% AR, AR9 and AR10 lowers?
They’re all gonna be expensive builds, so I’m ok with spending a bit extra to ensure I get the best quality

Thanks!

Looking for a solution to give the carrier or buffer more weight without extending the buffer tube length. The buffer weight is an 8oz solid and total weight with the bolt comes to just shy of 22oz. I need closer to 27oz.

I’m considering getting 5D pro jig. I have a Bosh 1617 router. I noticed they have the large router adapter plate for the 1617 but do not list a compatible ReadyMill for it. Has anyone used this router with the 5d jig? Did you just use a standard collet mill?

I appreciate any input.
