Polymer80 RL556V3 RHINO 80% AR-15 Lower Receiver
Take your firearms customization to the next level with the Polymer80 RL556V3 RHINO 80% AR-15 Lower Receiver. This unfinished firearm frame provides the foundation for building your own custom AR-15 rifle while complying with federal regulations for homemade firearms. Unlike completed receivers, this 80% lower requires final machining by the end user, making it the perfect project for experienced gunsmiths and firearms enthusiasts who want complete control over their build.

Why Choose the Polymer80 RL556V3 RHINO?
The Polymer80 RL556V3 RHINO represents the evolution of polymer lower receiver technology. While some shooters remain skeptical about polymer firearms components, Polymer80 has engineered this lower receiver to address common concerns while delivering exceptional performance characteristics.
- Enhanced Durability: Reinforced polymer construction with strategic metal inserts in high-stress areas provides exceptional strength-to-weight ratio
- Lightweight Advantage: Significantly lighter than aluminum counterparts, reducing overall rifle weight for improved handling
- Corrosion Resistance: Polymer construction eliminates rust concerns, making it ideal for humid environments and long-term storage
- Cost-Effective Platform: More affordable than machined aluminum lowers while maintaining functional reliability
- Customization Ready: Unfinished design allows for personalized machining and finishing touches
Technical Specifications and Build Requirements
Before purchasing the RL556V3 RHINO, understand that this is an 80% lower receiver, meaning it requires additional machining to become a functional firearm component. The fire control group pocket, trigger pin holes, and selector switch cavity need to be completed using appropriate jigs and tools.
Ideal Applications and Use Cases
This 80% lower receiver serves multiple purposes for different types of firearms enthusiasts:
- Custom Build Projects: Create a truly unique AR-15 with personalized specifications
- Gunsmithing Practice: Excellent for developing machining skills on firearm components
- Lightweight Hunting Rifles: Build ultralight AR-platform hunting rifles for backcountry use
- Training Platforms: Construct dedicated training rifles without investing in premium components
- Backup Firearms: Affordable option for building spare or emergency firearms
Legal Considerations and Compliance
As an 80% lower receiver, the Polymer80 RL556V3 RHINO is not considered a firearm under federal law until machining is completed. However, builders must comply with all applicable laws:
- Must be for personal use only – cannot manufacture for resale without proper licensing
- Must not create firearms prohibited in your jurisdiction
- Must be 21 years or older to purchase and possess
- Completion must comply with state and local regulations
- Serialization may be required depending on local laws
