What is the Difference Between a Stripped Lower Receiver and an Eighty Percent (80%)?

A stripped lower receiver is considered a firearm, is serialized, and requires an FFL transfer within the purchase process. It is 100% completely milled.

An 80% lower receiver is as the name implies – not 100% complete. Since it requires additional finishing and milling, it is not considered to be a firearm and therefore requires no serial number or FFL transfer.

This is an FFL required item, please email your transferring dealers FFL to leeann@psdmfg.com. Please also include your dealer’s info in the order comments.

If you live in a not-so-friendly state for owning guns, be sure you are well aware of the state laws before buying from us.
