Good to know Robert. I want to pick up one of those New Frontier Armory Lowers. JoeBobs HAD them for $75.... not sure if they are still on sale or not.

RobertH:
As far as i know the Modulus is the only jig that will fit NFA lowers, except the NFA jig. Schuyler Arms Co has annonized NFA blems for $55 plus ship. They look real good.

The BF deals plus 10% off rocks. Im excited to get started.

SS_N_NE:
When you get your jig...stick pins, drill bits, or whatever into the holes, measure with calipers and check against some drawings for dimension ( since measuring outsides of two pins, remember to subtract the radius of two pins to get the hole to hole dimension). There is more than one instance of a jig being off and the results being a botched lower (or numberous botched lowers). There are plenty of dimension drawings scattered around the web to download.

Most stuff is CNC machined reducing chances of error. However, the last 80% I cut had an endmill nick in the mag well edge where someone screwed up on a machine setting...but provided a nice "blem" price if you didn't mind the nick.
