AF = Accurate Forgings. Not Alcoa

Accurate Forgings was acquired by Cerro in early 2000.

Scroll to 2000

A guess maybe Unifor. They did aluminum forging in Laurens SC. Been bought out now with a different name. Umbrella Corp mentions using their forgings for their uppers in an old ad text.

Have to search to find it not on the site now. https://www.ucwrg.com/materiel/upper-receivers/30/gen-3-forged-upper-huucr-stripped/

Regarding the Sigma forge marking....PSA has stated that they now own this
(Posted here ~2years ago). I haven't seen it on many receivers since PSA put their own forge press into service.
