I intend to buy an 80% jig to have for a few projects that are coming in the next few years. The plan is to buy the jig and some 80% lowers so that as my kids get old enough to start shooting then we can build their rifles. Looking like at least 4 more lowers so the cost of buying a jig will be offset by savings in the long run because in my area your doing well to get out of a store with a lower for less than 50 and the average is probably about 60 per.
So, 80% lowers are about $40 shipped for cheap standard stuff. 4 lowers x $20 saved on each one gives me $80 to spend on a jig. There are some in that price range, but having only used one I borrowed from a coworker 3 years ago... I’m open to suggestions. I liked the one I borrowed. As it served as both jig and clamping fixture for the mill. I’m pretty sure it was an 80% Arms jig, but now I see some offer a jig that can be used with AR10 as well which is a longer term hope for me as well.
Suggestions please.
