| I just purchased a DPMS Lo Pro Classic with an a2 fixed buttstock. I purchased an after market collapsible stock kit with all parts included to switch over the a2 buttstock to a collapsible stock. I put an ambidextrious latch plate on the set up. When I try to charge my weapon, the charging handle hits the latch plate and will not let it charge. Did I do something wrong? Do I need to get another latch plate factory spec? Any advice would be appreciated. |

I had thought about filing it....but was unsure. Do you think a OEM DPMS plate would be better? I do not know, as I have never used DPMS anything. I'm partial to Daniel Defense or Vltor. You could just use the one from the kit, and then install an ambi sling mount, like the Z-360 |

OP, you need to buy a US made reputable latch plate (DPMS will of course fit) and it should fix your issue. The industry is full of imported aftermarket parts and some fit some don't. |
