My first experience with a Billet upper / lower build , is a Palmetto State Armory . Finish is great and everything is nice n clean .

Only issue I have is when pinning upper to lower have to squeeze it together to get rear pin to set in place .

Will this over time cause some stress in the front pin and crack it ?


TIA

It will loosen up as you use it. Some receivers have a tight fit when new.
