Peace through strength
Any idea on uppers? I have a completed lower now - been thinking either grendel OR one of those can/grappling hook things...
Trouble with grappling hook - I don't have anything to grapple.

Nope not a single clue lol. I needed a project that wasn’t House related.
No problems here with the Dewalt. I still tighten before every use, but no problems at all. I've done > 10. I have a few more left to do. I have a total of 23. I just kept buying them when I saw them on sale. My wife said "nobody needs 23 lowers" (in addition to the 7 functioning rifles I have). I said "you shut your commie mouth"

Mine said stop tracking metal shavings in the House........my black and decker duster is MONEY
I get complaints about the metal shavings, too.
She’s pretty low maintenance. I usually have no comebacks, sadly.
It’s legal.

Working on a pistol build now. Turning my spare banned 16 barrel into a 10.5 or so. Rockethub sourced upper as the host, some flavor of hand guard and iron sights.

I was reading Polymer80 PF940C reviews on Brownells and a person had a problem with the trigger pins drifting out every 50 rounds. He tried Zev and Strike Industries without any success. Even had a gunsmith drill one out and had same problem.
How do you combat this pin drifting with certainty?

I use these on finished lowers so it doesnt happen

He was using a Glock lower.
Not an AR Glock lower. A Glock.
Yeah, that’s what I said. A Glock lower. Glockenspiel Glock glickity glockity Glock brand Glock not Glock brand Glock lower.
Some people think of a “Glock lower” as an AR lower that takes Glock mags, thus the previous post picturing AR anti-walk pins.

R.I.P.
Drill hole undersized and then ream to final dimension. The trick is to use the correct size reamer.
Thank you for your reply. Makes sense - your explanation.
You'd think Polymer80 would supply just the right size as others must be experiencing similar problems.

I tossed about 300-400 rounds though mine this weekend. I had 3 failure to feeds but 1 was the very first shot and it is tight so I’m not upset but i had zero pin drift.
I’m not 100% that is trust my life with it but that could be mental as she did great for a brand new gun that i built
