I built one that had a parkerized lower and a couple of the holes had some crud or slag like material that I cleaned out with a twist drill bit held in my hand(no motor). Is there another receiver you could compare to yours?

Unfortunately, no. I sold my old one years ago. My receiver looks to be perfectly made with no excess metal.

Have you tried to lightly tap the pins in with a small hammer or a plastic hammer? I don't mean to just haul off and whop it real hard but lightly tap it and see if they will start to go.
Maybe get some other pins and see if they are the same. If the holes are out of spec you might have to ream them a little but be careful. |

I had the same problem with the last lower I built (RRA with Bushy internals) all I did was to thin them out just a bit with a file (just a few passes with no real pressure) and then used an aligator pliers (spell?) to get them started and then tapped them with my 3lbs. hammer (I do not have a small one). Whatever you do go really easy and do not force anythin or you will scratch your lower and regret it the rest of your life.
Good luck BR |

I had a simualr problem trying to improvise tools, using a Oly lower but after breaking down and getting a set of Role Pin Punches the problem was solved
Hope this helps |
