Thanks. Been doing duckduckgo searches and wasting a lot of time on OOS links.

If you use Facebook go to any of the 80 percent builders groups and ask them they always know where the deals are.

I went to my private group and asked. If they respond I will post links. Do you have a jig? Lead time on the 5D gen 3 is around 8 weeks right now.

I found them to be stupid expensive when I looked yesterday. I will see if I can find the site and let you know. What is your ceiling price to pay?

Because they aren't 80% and I would have to go through FFL.

I have never found 80% lowers cheaper than Anderson lowers including the cost of the transfer. I completed some 80% lowers because I wanted the experience and lowers without any roll marks. It certainly wasn't to save money.

If you know anyone with access to BATFE evidence storage, there are probably a few 80% lowers there; and given how careful they are with other people's property, they are probably all blems now.

Been written many times and I'm sure you know but the point of the 80s isn't always cost savings
