Blemished – 80% Lower Fire/Safe Marked – Anodized Black

Overview

This listing is for a blemished – 80% lower fire/safe marked – anodized black component intended for builders seeking a cost-effective platform for a custom AR-style pistol or rifle. The part is a raw, uncompleted 80% lower receiver that requires final machining before it can function as a serialized firearm frame. The anodized black finish is applied uniformly across the exterior, though the “blemished” designation means the part may exhibit cosmetic irregularities such as minor scratches, tool marks, or anodizing inconsistencies that do not affect structural integrity. The fire/safe markings are laser-engraved into the aluminum on the selector side, providing clear visual reference for safety positions after completion. This is a parts category item and is not a finished firearm.

Features & Specs

The blemished – 80% lower fire/safe marked – anodized black receiver is machined from 7075-T6 aluminum billet and hardcoat anodized to MIL-A-8625 Type III standards. The fire/safe markings are precisely positioned and measure approximately 0.125 inches in height. The pocket dimensions are within standard mil-spec tolerances, though the blemished condition may include minor surface-level deviations. The part is compatible with standard AR-15 lower parts kits and buffer tube assemblies. Below are the core specifications:

• Material: 7075-T6 aluminum; anodized black per MIL-A-8625 Type III; weight approximately 0.8 pounds
• Markings: Laser-engraved fire/safe selector markings on left side; no serial number or manufacturer rollmarks

Who It’s For

This blemished – 80% lower fire/safe marked – anodized black component is designed for experienced DIY builders, gunsmiths, and hobbyists who have the tooling and knowledge to complete the pocket and trigger group machining. It is ideal for those who prioritize function over cosmetic perfection and want to save cost on a build where the lower receiver will be refinished, cerakoted, or used in a utilitarian configuration. The part is not recommended for first-time builders or those seeking a show-grade finish. Because the receiver is uncompleted, it does not require an FFL transfer at the time of purchase, though applicable state and local laws regarding 80% lowers must be followed by the buyer.
