    I swear it looks like the 80% arms one. Someone on another thread said perhaps made by the same people.

    My jig has well over 50 lowers through it at this point. It is a little beat up, but still works.

    The 5D, 80% arms, and modulus jigs all look identical now. A guy on youtube who had them all for comparison speculated that they were all made or licensed from one operation.

    Also all 3 of their headquarters are all within about a mile of each other.

    So considering the identical designs and headquarters proximity i think its a safe bet that they are all made by one operation.

    They are basically the same, 5D / 80% Arms / Modulus.

    5D has Pissed some off changed the top plate to a "Durable
    glass-filled nylon" mid stream older versions are metal, bad
    batches of drill guides, bad bearings, etc ignored people..
    follow some of it on
    arfcom...YMMV

    80% Arms Gen 3 all metal

    Modulus Arms all metal

    some went from solid metal side plates, to Skeleton side plates

    there are some differences in how the fire control pocket is milled out
    one mills it straight on the sides, the others has the "bump out" what
    ever you want to call it on the side. And how the top plate attaches to
    the side plates I don't know what the current shipping products are, of
    the Jigs my ,25 worth is Modulus / 80% Arms / 5D in that order.... I
    have all 3 jigs and older versions of some. Buy yourself some better
    drill bits and mills. I posted links in another thread...and take your time.


    There "were" videos by Vincent Smith comparing them but
    You Tube "forced" him to take some of them down
    But here is a comparison video

    AR's are simple to do.."assemble I should say".

    1911's, MP5's, HK's, UZi's, AK's and others are more fun...;);)

    Here's the video that talks about each
