Overview
Built as a foundation for a custom AR-15, this stripped lower receiver is intended for builders who want a receiver that accepts standard AR-15 components and follows mil-spec dimensions. The Gen 2 design adds an upper tension screw for fine-tuning fit with a standard upper, along with an increased magwell flare to help with magazine insertion. It is supplied as a stripped lower, so it suits users assembling a rifle around their preferred parts rather than looking for a complete setup. FFL required for purchase.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Requires an FFL for purchase, so it is not a simple direct-ship component.
- This is a stripped lower receiver, so it is only the foundation of a build and does not include the other parts needed for a complete rifle.
- It is specified for standard AR15 components and small-pin (.154") hammer/pin holes, so compatibility depends on matching the rest of the build to those dimensions.
- The upper tension screw and increased magwell flare are fit-and-handling refinements, but they do not change the need to verify upper and magazine compatibility in your chosen setup.
