no, as in AR15 :laughing: its the thread for the buffer tube.

Fuck, if you are going to spend the time to do a 80% FAL receiver you may as well just machine the bitch from a solid block.

why the fuck has someone NOT started to CNC FAL receivers anyway?:confused:

Well if you would find somebody who would give me a couple hundred grand for a five axis CNC and a trained monkey to run it I'd be all over making a bunch. I'd even send you a couple for free.

I am your monkey when you get the machine. hell we can even set it up in my garage, since I am licensed and all that
Yes I can see making some FA FALs and 'trying' to sell them to the government on my todo list:D

Doc,

Doesn't Brownell's give a C&R discount? Or is that price with the C&R discount? I thought I remembered a thread where you applied for yours awhile back.

The magwell can be a bitch. Drill out the corners with the smallest drill bit you can find and you will still be finishing them with a broach or a file unless you have an EDM. The rest of it is gravy if you have a mill. There are a few guys on gunco who have finished them with nothing but a drill press and files, so it can be done, its just how nice of a finished product you are going for. cncguns.com sells a fixture to hold the lower for machining and its also a template for all the side holes and the mag release slot.

If you want to do a .50 BMG, you can skip the magwell and mag catch because they are useless.
