    Stopped by 80% Arms website over the weekend, it's been a while so thought I would look around. They were out of all the jigs. Is business that good or other fed related factors happening here too?

    Unless I got mixed up, I've purchased from them before. They had a really nice and well thought out system for the AR15 platform. I was there curious about the AR308.

    Hmmm... guess I have more homework then. I thought my jig was developed and marketed by the same company.

    Blackhawk Manufacturing Group is 80% Arms, but they also own the name 5D tactical. I've heard they are a reseller of those jigs but maybe Blackhawk makes them.

    Easy Jig is the one I have. Seems like they didn't have the multi-platform back then, only the AR-15 and AR-10 jigs. I looked up my records and all points back to 80% arms. At the time it had the best reviews I could find.

    did some more research on this; apparently the anti-constitution party passed some laws that are currently under review by SCOTUS that affect selling the recently concocted genre of ghost gun, "kits". If I'm reading it correctly, suppliers cannot (or hesitant to) sell jig kits and gun parts (anything that ATF wants to construe as a gun kit) from from the same store. I believe the leftist logic behind it is to herd everything into a national gun registry. My guess is the only thing standing in the way of ths national registry is "ghost guns" and "gun show loop hole". I honestly thought that SCOTUS had settled this jig kit issue but apparently it's still going on.

    The big 80% issue currently is not the kits. Jigs are obtainable still. Big issue for 80%'s is the ATF frame/receiver rule the is pending before the supreme court. 5th circuit put a stay on the rule but SCOTUS let the rule take effect while it is before the courts. Rule really only impacts 80% handguns as the rule is pretty clear on AR's. So for 80% Arms they can't currently sell their GST-9 and for Polymer 80 they can't most of their product line.
