    I have a few 80% AR lowers and was looking into getting some AK flats before Oct 1st. Does anyone have a setup I could use to finish these items before the 1 October deadline?

    Wait, you can't complete 80% lowers after 10/1? If true, that's news to me.

    From what I have been reading you can complete after 10/1, you just can't use it to make a banned weapon. At best you will have to put an HBAR upper on it, to be in accordance with the laws. This is just based off what I was reading, but it does makes sense.

    HBAR - Still able to purchase after 10/1, so hence not a banned weapon.

    Used a dremel and high speed cutting bit plus a metric crapton of patience to do my 80%. It's not nearly as pretty or speedy as using a mill but it works and all looks the same from the outside. Just gotta take your time and mic it out often.
