Overview
Built as a foundation for a custom AR-15 setup, this stripped lower receiver is intended for builders who want a receiver that works with standard AR-15 components. Its Gen 2 updates include an upper tension screw for fine-tuning receiver fit and an increased magwell flare to help with magazine insertion. Machined to mil-spec dimensions and finished in hardcoat anodized 7075 T6 aluminum, it is a practical choice for a serious build where component compatibility and fit matter. FFL required for purchase.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- This is a stripped lower receiver, so it is only the starting point for a custom AR-15 build and does not include the components needed for a complete lower assembly.
- The upper tension screw is intended to fine tune fit with a standard AR-15 upper, but actual fit still depends on the specific upper receiver used.
- It uses small pin .154" hammer/pin holes and .250" pivot/takedown pin holes, so compatibility should be checked against the parts selected for the build.
- FFL required for purchase, which adds a transfer step before it can be received.
