So, you want to build your own rifle?
You’re in luck. There are many tools and jigs available for the aspiring gunsmith at home!
One of these is an 80% lower jig. These empower you to build your own firearm out of an 80% lower receiver. In fact, at 5D Tactical, you can find everything you need to take your first, bold steps into the world of home gunsmithing.
However, to start off on the right foot, you must ensure you understand the industry. What are 80 lower jigs, and why are they becoming an increasingly popular alternative to purchasing completed firearms?
A 80 lower jig provides a template for simplifying the repetitive, mechanical processes that are required when building a rifle out of an 80% lower receiver. For example, it empowers you to drill holes in the precise location needed to assemble the lower receiver of an AR-15, AR-308, AR-10, AR9, or similar carbines and rifles.
An 80% lower jig is a collection of tools, measurements, and guides that assist you in completing a DIY gunsmithing project. With one of these kits, and at least a drill press and router, you can convert an 80 lower receiver into a functioning lower receiver for a rifle or carbine.
The only difference between AR-15 80 lower jig sets and any other 80 jig set is in the types of firearm the kits produce. In other words, if you’re looking for an AR-15 router jig for sale, then a jig kit for a pistol won’t be of any help, so remember to ensure that you’re investing in the right jig for your desired platform.
Yes! In fact, many consider the 80 receiver jig to be the most vital set of tools for completing an 80 lower. Because they provide you with a template and the bits you need for drilling and cutting, these tools are invaluable in the DIY home gun-building process.
Firearms enthusiasts and beginner gunsmiths should use an 80% jig to maximize efficiency and minimize inconsistencies when assembling an 80 percent lower. This provides veterans and newcomers alike with the power to create their own carbines precisely and efficiently.
No, because an 80 lower isn’t a firearm, neither it — nor the 80 jig — require a license to purchase or own. The lower receiver is considered the frame of a firearm by the Gun Control Act of 1968 once it’s converted for use.
Additionally, because the jig is simply used to guide home gunsmiths in building a firearm, it is not considered one itself. Therefore, a license is not required to purchase, own, or use an 80 jig.
Fortunately, choosing the right 80 lower jig is the easiest part, as you simply have to determine the type of firearm you prefer. Our AR-15 80 lower receiver jig set combination is great if you want to build an AR-15 and need the 80 lower, while our Router Jig PRO package is perfect for several platforms.
They may look very similar, but the AR-10 was developed to utilize 7.62 NATO rounds, while AR-15s use 5.56 or .223 ammunition. Multi-platform jigs, such as the PRO package above, can be used for either weapon.
However, if you select a jig for one specific model, then you won’t be able to use it on the other platform.
The many frequently asked questions about 80 lowers demonstrate that there exists an enduring interest in home gunsmithing. Fortunately, for firearms enthusiasts who wish to get involved with the production process, there are several great benefits to opting for an 80 lower over a completed firearm.
