I cannot find a jig or a drawing to finish my lower. I cannot find a jig anywhere, and have been told a DPMS jig cannot be used. Anyone have any ideas?

I would check out these guys. They sell Knights style lowers, as well as this jig so it might work. Out of stock like everything else, but worth a call.

Been there and done that, they say their jig doesn't work with their own 80%
If you're doing 1-2 the drill press jigs do work although the pocket isn't really pretty. It's also a strain on the spindle of your drill press. If you're doing more than 1-2 I'd say go with this setup. The results I've seen have been really nice.

I already have one of those. I'm pretty sure that jig or type of jigs won't work with an armalite lower.
Pardon I missed the Armalite part. That's the real downside of the AR10 platform, the idea of "mil spec" is really limited.
No problem, Its literally impossible to find a jig, and after genesisCNC shut down and stole $275 from me (never sent me product, and website is down).....I'm not sure what to do.
What are the chances you can mod your jig a bit? What does it reference off of and is it armalite compatible? If the alignment is correct I would consider clearancing an LR308 jig. I was able to do such on with my BTR jig with EP80 9mm lower.
I don't have a complete armalite lower to go off of, to know where everything needs to be. The pins should line, up although I never tried it.
