hello all.  newbie here.  getting a lot of good info on this site.  but havent come across my condition yet so here goes.  im assembling my lower and the holes for the hammer and trigger pins are too large.  as in the pins will wobble vertically and horizontally when the hammer and trigger are operated.  rough estimate would be i.d. of holes is about .010" larger than o.d. of pins, leaving .005 on either side of pin.  short of replacing the lower, is there any way of repairing this dilemma???  I was considering making some type of steel buching to press into the lower but dont know how or if that would even help.  any suggestions would greatly be appreciated.  not really wanting to get another lower as im in NJ and they are kinda hard to come by, and if ordered by my local shop are overpriced.
