I'm in for a 100% lower...I'm not a 80% kinda guy...a regular build is easy enough.

I think I'm in the 100% camp as well.

Best suggestion yet. I think I'll need one of these.

"Odd," said Arthur, "I thought you said it was a democracy."
"I did," said Ford, "it is."
"So," said Arthur, hoping he wasn't sounding ridiculously obtuse, "why don't the people get rid of the lizards?"
"It honestly doesn't occur to them. They've all got the vote, so they all pretty much assume that the government they've voted in more or less approximates the government they want."
"You mean they actually vote for the lizards."
"Oh yes," said Ford with a shrug, "of course."
"But," said Arthur, going for the big one again, "why?"
"Because if they didn't vote for a lizard, then the wrong lizard might get in."

What is this "need" stuff? I'm sitting here thinking that this would be a great excuse to see if I can assemble an upper without screwing it up beyond all hope of redemption.

I never considered building an AR-15 before. What's the difference? Would one be easier to ship or something? What kind of machining would be needed on an 80% vs 100%?

There may be some misunderstanding of what means "80% lower" vs. "100% lower."

quote:

What is an 80% Lower Receiver?

The Lower Receiver is the Part of the Firearm that requires serialization and in some states registration of your firearm. This is a way to track the firearm itself. The Lower receiver is the part of a firearm that houses the operating parts including the trigger group, safety selector, buffer tube assembly and magazine port. Under the United States law the receiver is the actual firearm itself and is the controlled part without which operation is impossible. The law views the receiver as that part of a firearm housing that has the serial number upon it. In the case of a firearm that has multiple receivers such as the AR-15, which has an upper and lower receiver, the legally controlled part is the one that is serialized (the lower, in the AR-15's case).

An 80% Lower Receiver is foundation for any AR build. An 80% lower receiver is a product that allows a gun enthusiast and firearm builder to complete their own custom AR-15 or AR-10 Rifle without any paperwork and with no FFL transfer. By definition of the law, an 80% lower is not considered a firearm since it is not functional in its current state and not until its 100% completed and functional is it deemed a firearm. By design, the 80% Lower receiver will still require the 80% Builder to complete the remaining 20% of milling to complete the firearm. 80% Lower jigs are tooling clamps that make it easy for the 80% Lower builder to mill precise and accurate finishing of the 80% lower to see it to 100% Lower completion.

An 80% Lower is a partially completed piece of material such as aluminum that requires custom machining work to be completed an considered a firearm by US Law and ATF standards.

Ref: What is an 80% lower receiver?

There's "functional" and "functional." A 100% lower receiver is "functional" in that it's a piece of metal with all the bits drilled- and milled-out that make it ready to accept the parts that actually make it a capable of being mated with an upper and functioning. (I.e.: Fire control group, magazine catch, etc.) It is not a operable lower receiver.
