I have 3 80% lowers with a jig and tools. Haven't messed with them yet.

Here's the question (not going to do this just wondering): how would you or could you make an SBR with an 80% lower? Pretty certain you need a serial number with and SBR but I just don't see being able to SBR one without having a manufacturer license (is that a class III?)

I have an SBR and no plans to do another just curious if it can be done with an 80%

You have to etch/stamp/grind/engrave your name, city + state, model number, serial number, and caliber.

They'll also have to have to licensing credentials from the ATF.

I know they're something I don't want to mess with.

Machine it to a lower and then submit your Form 1 and $200 to make it an SBR. No different than if you were making a "100%" lower you bought from an FFL into an SBR

I misread when he said he wasn't making another ATF in which cause belay my last. Now if he did want to make an SBR, different story.

FIL got me one when he found the jig at a gun show. Gave $35 for it.

The others came from Larry at Midway for $49
