As of July 2021, Livewire is now made from a forging and it truly sets a new standard in forged lower receivers. Each Livewire starts life as a 7075 aluminum billet that is first heated to 800 degrees and then forged into a near final shape with a custom tool and the pressure of a 4100 ton press.

Post forging, the receiver goes through final machine operations on our CNCs. This process reduces both material cost and machine time without hindering our ability to deliver the master-level craftsmanship we’re known for.

Made from a custom 7075-T6 forging. Threaded bolt catch pin included.

Features include:

• An oversized and integral trigger guard
• Ambidextrous bolt release
• A beveled magazine flare
• Machined top to bottom from 7075-T6 aluminum, a peak-strength corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy
• Full compatibility with all mil-spec internal parts
• Full compatibility with all other aftermarket mil-spec upper receivers
• Full compatibility with GI standard issue magazines as well as PMags
• Multi caliber mark
• Lower Weight: ~8.7 o
