Spent the day over my in-laws yesterday for my father-in-law's birthday. While there, the wife and I completed our lowers. And yes, she did all her own work. It made my FIL happy to see his daughter completing her own pink lower.

They turned out pretty good, but I had an issue with the trigger pin hole on my first one. On one side, the bit slipped off the guide and I ended up with a "vent hole" near the trigger pin. It's far enough away that it shouldn't cause any problem, but I'll need to plug it up to keep dirt out. Does anyone have a suggestion what to use to plug it?

Resin Epoxy will do the trick.

Any particular brand or type I should look for? I was looking at some Loctite 431348 Epoxy putty.

My uncle put his together and the selector seems very tight compared to my other ars. It's almost too hard to turn with one thumb. Did anyone else have this problem?

Oil it up first then insert your 3/8 bit thru and thru then spin counter clockwise with your hand while holding the drill bit... mine does that too...

Nothing a little dremeling wouldn't take care off. Had same problems with the New Frontier Lowers as well.

Mine was really tight so I clipped a coil and a half of the of the selector detent spring and now it's perfect.

Please remember that Marylanders had until September 30th 23:59:59 to LEGALLY finish their lowers. You CANNOT LEGALLY finish a lower (manufacture/build) now. I would strongly advise against anyone posting anything about doing so.

Not sure I agree...

Not sure I agree...

This thread makes it clear as mud. I would still advise against posting anything in here about finishing a lower post Oct 1st.

Not a lawyer don't take my advise ... blah blah blah.....
