A friend of mine, out of the blue, told me he bought an 80% jig and a lower for each of us, he only asked that he could use my drill press, to which I of course agreed. As I began researching 80% lowers and jigs, I found that the drill press types provide a poor quality finish. If I'm going to do it, I want to do right. The 5D and Modulus jigs are said to be the best.
I ended up finding him a deal on a used 5D jig, figuring we can just sell it right after and only lose like $20, he may keep it though.
My questions to you guys are:
Any tips/tricks to doing 80% lowers?
Whats the best finish to use? Thinking Cerakote @Magdump since he did a great job on my pistols
Are there any really cool, different looking 80% lowers out there?
