I've been building ARs for 10 years now........
Never once have I had a problem.
Recently I've had two lowers out of spec.
1 was a TN Arms hybrid lower, the hole for the bolt catch spring/plunger was drilled too deep = no tension on the lever.
I had a replacement within a week. They were very good about it. This was the 7th lower from them that I built. Glad they took care of it.
Then, this week, I picked up a Noreen billet lower from AIM...
Something is off with the machining for the mag catch or the magwell itself is out of spec.
Using a Lancer mag, it holds... But if I pull it, it comes right out... Also if I shake it or insert a loaded mag... Falls right out.
Went back to Noreen in today's mail ...
Essentially TWO bad receivers in a month!
Anyone else?
