RL556V3 80% AR15 Lower – Black
Overview
The RL556V3 80% AR15 lower – black is a precision-machined, unfinished lower receiver designed for builders who want complete control over their firearm project. Manufactured by RL556v3, this 80% lower is constructed from 7075-T6 aluminum and finished in a durable black anodized coating. It is compatible with standard AR15 upper receivers, parts kits, and buffer tube assemblies. As an 80% lower, it requires final machining of the trigger pocket, fire control group hole, and safety selector hole to become a functional receiver. This component is sold as a non-firearm blank under current ATF guidelines and is intended for personal use only.

Who It’s For
This product is intended for experienced firearm builders who own the necessary tools and jigs to complete an 80% lower. It is suitable for hobbyists, custom rifle builders, and anyone who prefers to assemble their own AR15 platform from the ground up.

It is designed for personal use and should not be transferred or sold after completion without following applicable federal and state laws.

Shipping & FFL
Because the RL556V3 80% AR15 lower – black is sold as an unfinished, non-firearm blank, it does not require transfer through a Federal Firearms License (FFL) dealer. It can be shipped directly to your residence in most states. However, some states and localities restrict the purchase, possession, or completion of 80% lowers. It is your responsibility to verify your local laws before ordering. By purchasing this item, you confirm that you are legally permitted to own and complete an 80% lower receiver in your jurisdiction. Once machined, the completed receiver is considered a firearm and must be serialized if sold or transferred. We recommend consulting with a legal professional regarding your specific obligations.
