I'm assembling my lower receiver now following the instructions on here. I haven't gotten far. My bolt release plunger is not fitting into the receiver where it is supposed to. I tapped it in and it got stuck. I had to pull it out with needle nose pliers. What do I do? Does the hole in the receiver need to be enlarged? Or do I sand down the bolt release plunger? |

I recently had a bolt catch that was a little too thick. Thankfully I keep a supply of parts on hand, and just grabbed another one. In your case, I would say to sand the part a bit until it dropped in and had a free range of motion. Ooops, I just read it again and see where you wrote plunger, my bad. Take a drill bit of the same size, and gently/ by hand twist it and clean the hole out. Flashing can be left in there sometimes. |
