    Default Anyone hosting "build parties" for completing an 80% lower?

    Please excuse a noobe question. I purchased an AR kit with an 80% lower receiver and I'm looking for anyone local (Denver area) who has the equipment and know-how to help me. The company I purchased from hosts "build parties," however they are located in Kalifornia. Having left that state to move here (best decision I ever made!) I have no intention of going back there if I can help it. Any input is greatly appreciated...thanks in advance!

    I ordered a couple from the company you did. Not sure how long it will take to get mine, but perhaps if we can get our own "Build Party" together. A couple other persons with whom I work with also ordered one as well. We are just waiting for our orders to be fulfilled.

    That sounds great! I may have a lead on a local machine shop we could use. The owner is a good friend of a friend of mine. I placed my order this past Monday...called them yesterday to let them know the payment (money order) should be there on Friday. The guy told me the estimated delivery date was mid-March. Given the current situation I can live with that.

    I am not too far ahead of you I think probably by a week or two. Lets keep in touch and see how it goes! You think he would accept a case of his favorite beverage for the use of his space? :-D

    I'm not sure...but I'm certain a case of his favorite beverage would certainly help...
    As soon as I get more info I'll let you know!

    Interested here, as well. Eventually (someday) my Ares 80% lower should arrive and for sure, I'm interested in this as well. If they can do it over there in California, we can certainly do it here!

    I got most of the tools for assembling an AR for my build that I just completed. Spent a butt load on tools, vise blocks, etc just for mine. You are welcome to use my work bench and tools in exchange for Pmags! Seriously, I only have one mag. If you need any machine work or TIG welding done, I can so that too. PM me if you guys are interested. Just want to give back to this community and hopefully make some friends.

    Now I'm curious... Are there registration steps that need to be taken when you finish milling the Ares 80?
