Same happens on my Sig. I looked it up and it seems pretty typical

Yeah, like I said, a light dimple is fine. But there’s a fine line where your firing pin protrusion could be actually protruding when it chambers

Just file that shit down. Worked on my sks

Dimples on the primer after firing is super common. If you don't have a dimple, you might have to worry about light primer strikes.

Pls....do not....do not do that

Too late, SKS boi took the file to the pin

PSA has AK-Ps in stock right now. Expensive but PSA AKs are not PSA ARs; they seem to be damn good.

They also have KS-47 pistols in stock.

> Anderson is...well, do you have armorers tools?
@Crye_Salesman
That I do not, why do you say that? Have plenty of tools but none specific to armory

Also..what the fuck is this? I know I've seen it but I'm doing this piecemeal and I can't remember the color bag this was in

Bolt catch/release and the associate roll pin, detent and spring. Goes in the lower just behind the magazine well

Much appreciated, friend

No problem. The trick is to get that thing in without scratching your receiver with the punch

What’s the equivalent to the coat hanger trick for a 10/22?

... Why do you ask?

Are Burris optics worth a damn?

Burris seems to be okay? But... Honestly I'd just save a bit more and go with a bigger brand.

I mean if you can afford better I definitely would

I'd use Vortex over Burris. But if you can save up for Aimpoint or Trijicon or Primary Arms or EO Tech, I would.

Also heard a lot of good things about Holosuns red dots

It seems that my bolt catch and firing hammer are touching, I feel like that isn't a good thing. Leaves the bolt catch feeling rusty when assembled

@JackLAXXX

Your hammer will not touch your bolt catch when it is cocked back.

But other than that, a successful first time assembling an AR15. Honestly...much simpler than I expected

Okay, I see

Also, did you scratch your receiver?

I don't believe I scratched anything

The BCG will also stop that from happening iirc

Hey, for your first build. Using Pony lowers is probably a good choice actually. That was if it scratches, you don't feel so bad

A quick tip for anyone who is building receivers anytime soon is to take painters tape and put it on the receiver where your hammer will go.

(For the bolt catch)

You mean my upper receiver? Only very minor scuffs

But there are some

In otherwords. You did fine, but let's see them pics

Good to know regarding the burris vs vortex. Only vortex I can find right now are upcharged like hell, so just going to stick with shitty ruger backup irons until they start to come back.

This right here with Magpul MOE stock

I have sights and my nickel boron BCG coming in this week

Stake your castle nut?

Oof wait did I install the castle nut incorrectly
