Pivot/Take down pins too large? Or holes too small?

    I"m going to try to be there about noon. It just depends if the ol lady has a training class to teach at work or not. If so I may be there about 2.

    different sized takedown pins, giant one doesn't fit anything

    I bought a PSA lower and it lines up nicely with the RRA upper. However, the RRA lower parts kit had one big honking takedown pin that wouldn't fit either of my uppers or lowers (too wide and too long). Plus the front takedown pin needs to be squared off to fit.

    I would send it back, but it's not worth the postage.

    Anyone else have this experience? :dunno:

    Okay, it looks like I didn't get a pivot pin. I can't figure out the deal with the big pin?

    second question re loose A2 buttstock

    After I seat the buffer tube and mount the A2 buttstock, I am finding about 1/8" lateral play. No matter how tight I cinch up the stock screw, it's there.

    NOT a crushed spring, or an incorrectly seated spacer.

    Almost looks like it could use a washer of some sort?

    Don't want to strip out the screw/buffer tube.
