General Manufacturing Company offers a wide variety of contract manufacturing including CNC milling, turning, assembly, and many other services for your custom projects or OEM needs. Please send RFQ’s to info@generalmfg.net
We offer several different options for getting your brand name onto our quality billet and forged lower receivers. If you are a 07 Manufacturer, we can guide you through the process to get an ATF approved marking variance so that we can mark lowers with your info instead of ours which will help you appeal to your local customer base. If you are a 01 Dealer, we can still help you customize these lowers as well. We can also do special runs for groups, organizations, forums, etc. with a minimum order of 25 parts.
Once we receive the requested info, we will prepare the ATF Marking Variance Request on behalf of your company. We will send the variance to you for review, corrections. You will sign the marking variance request and e-mail it back to us so we can submit your package to ATF and start the wait time. Between 30-90 days after submission, the BATFE will send back an e-mail to your company and ours at the same time when the variance is approved which allows us to start work on your order. (01 Dealers and Custom Orders will skip the variance step; however, we still require all the info below in the same format) At this time our engraving department will send you photos of an actual lower engraved with your info for your approval before we start manufacturing your custom lowers.
It’s very important to us that we make this a smooth and simple process for both of our companies. To get started we need some information from your company. Please e-mail the info to us variance@generalmfg.net with the subject line: “New Variance Request”. Please ensure you send in ALL information in ONE e- mail to us to simplify the process. The easiest way for both parties to keep all the information straight would be to format the information in the order it is below.
**TIP – We can put all styles/calibers of lowers we make on one variance request even if you’re not ready to order them all!**
At the time of order confirmation, a 50% deposit of your total order will be due upon receipt. When your order is ready to be engraved (usually 24-48 hours before they leave for anodizing) you will be sent an invoice for the remaining 50%balance due immediately. Turnaround at anodizing varies depending on their workload, however 7-10 business days has been the norm. Once we receive them back from anodizing, they will go through final quality control and assembly for the pieces of hardware we provide “when applicable”, get individually bagged, packaged, and boxed up to ship. Drop shipping from anodizing can be done per your request.
