Description

This lot features a single 80% lower receiver manufactured by Matrix Arms, designed for the AR-15 platform and typically chambered for 5.56x45mm NATO or .223 Remington. Constructed from forged aluminum with a matte black finish, the component represents a standard semi-automatic rifle or pistol foundation. The left side of the receiver is marked with recessed selector positions labeled SAFE and FIRE. The right side includes the standard magazine release button recess and bolt catch pin hole. The interior of the trigger group area and magazine well shows evidence of milling and superficial wear, including small silver-colored nicks and some uneven spotting in the finish. The receiver is accompanied by an original white Matrix Arms box, which bears a handwritten notation reading No serial numbers or manufacturer roll marks are clearly visible on the external body in the provided views.


Condition report:

The receiver displays a matte black finish with scattered superficial handling marks, light scuffing, and localized spotting or discoloration, particularly visible on the magazine well. Small nicks through the finish to the underlying aluminum are present around the trigger guard pin holes. The interior shows standard milling marks and light wear consistent with assembly or inspection. Mechanical function has not been verified, and the accompanying packaging notes suggest potential functional defects; the item is sold for parts or repair.
