Blemished – 80% Lower Fire/Safe Marked – Anodized Black
Overview
This listing offers a blemished – 80% lower fire/safe marked – anodized black receiver for builders seeking a cost-effective foundation for their next custom pistol or rifle platform. The anodized black finish provides a uniform appearance while the fire/safe markings are clearly engraved for immediate visual reference. As an 80% lower, this component requires final machining before it becomes a functional firearm receiver. The blemishes present are cosmetic only and may include minor anodizing inconsistencies, tool marks, or edge imperfections that do not affect the structural integrity or the subsequent machining process. This is a non-serialized component, intended for personal fabrication in compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws. The blemished – 80% lower fire/safe marked – anodized black configuration is a practical choice for builders who prioritize value and function over pristine cosmetic appearance.

Who It’s For
This product is intended for the experienced hobbyist or custom builder who understands the machining requirements of an 80% receiver. It is specifically suited for those who do not require a cosmetically perfect component for their build. The blemished – 80% lower fire/safe marked – anodized black option is ideal for projects where the lower will be painted, cerakoted, or otherwise refinished. It also serves as a low-cost test piece for builders trying new jig setups or machining techniques. Individuals who need a functional lower receiver that will be subjected to heavy use and wear will find this an economically viable choice. This is not a beginner product; it requires access to a drill press, router, or CNC machine, along with the corresponding jig and tooling.
Shipping & FFL
This blemished – 80% lower fire/safe marked – anodized black component is not a finished firearm receiver and does not require transfer through a Federal Firearms License (FFL) holder for shipment. It is classified as a non-gun component under current ATF regulations. However, once machined to completion, it becomes a firearm and must be serialized by the builder if it is ever sold or transferred. We ship to all states where possession of 80% lower receivers is legal. The buyer is solely responsible for verifying all state and local laws regarding the ownership, machining, and completion of this component. By purchasing this item, you acknowledge that you are not prohibited from owning firearms and that you will comply with all applicable laws. No returns are accepted on blemished items due to the nature of the cosmetic condition.
