Jig & Receiver Compatibility

These jigs last for long! One metal AR-10 jig can easily complete twenty or lowers without having to replace any plates from wear-and-tear. Want to spend as little as possible on your 80 percent lower .308 build? The polymer jig-and-lower combo kits come with both an AR-10 polymer receiver blank, the jig, and the bits!

Also, each of our stand-alone .308 jigs is made compatible with the popular DPMS LR-308 (gen 1)-type .308 80% lower receiver. These full-size receivers closely mimic the size and shape of the original ArmaLite-10 platform. Therefore, offers you the opportunity to build an accurate 7.62 NATO or .308 shooter from the ground up.

Is it legal?

YES! The 308 unit is well within the defined parameters of a “receiver blank” defined by the ATF. Therefore, it has not yet reached a stage of manufacture that meets the definition of firearm frame or receiver found in the Gun Control Act of 1968 (GCA).
