Ares Armor just announced the release of their new AR10 Signature Billet 80 Percent Lower. Made of 7075 T6 Billet aluminum, Ares Armor says 80% lower (which was 2 years in development and refinement) is “…the highest grade 80 percent AR10 lower available”. The lower features a trigger over travel set screw, giving the owner the ability to fine tune the trigger. This is a benefit whether the firearm is being used as a long range precision gun or a shorter length carbine. The lower also has an upper/lower tensioning set screw to reduce any slack or rattle, along with an integrated trigger guard and a flared magwell. Ares Armor was founded in 2010 and supplies customers with tactical gear and build-your-own firearms products and are based out of Oceanside California.. They claim to be the “home of the 80 percent lower”. The AR10 Billet 80 percent lower can be ordered raw or anodized, and starts out at $220. However they do have the lowers on sale for $150 now for a limited time. You can visit the site to look at the lower here.
