Appreciate you making this video for us newbies that haven’t done this yet.

It’s definitely not refined nor polished. First time trying to record assembly. I found some of these for my first build and it helped a ton. I’ll post another soon with better angles, tool sizes, and clearer instructions… more to come. Appreciate the feedback!

Great no BS build video Sir. Bare bones with no special tools other than the armorers wrench. I am a First time builder with No experience with AR's what so ever and it only took me an hour to do this build and I couldn't be happier. FYI: I used a shish kabob skewer to push threw to hold the detents in place instead of a punch and it was a perfect fit. Thanks again 👍

Next time, if you want to prevent scraping and scratching up the lower while installing the bolt catch roll pin, cover the area to the rear of it with painter's tape. In addition, I use a round toothpick with the sharp tip cut off as a "slave pin" to hold the bolt catch in place as I drive in the roll pin . . . which drives the toothpick out the other side as the roll pin displaces it. Eliminates the need for three hands.

@ageorge984 8 ай бұрын

that toothpick hack was a life saver, thanks man!

@rossneal925 2 ай бұрын

Just a couple of tips. When installing the bolt catch, put the spring in first and then the little tip. The tip should be touching the bolt catch lever, not the spring. Also, use some sort of slave pin (small punch or allen wrench) to hold the bolt catch lever while tapping in the roll pin. As you tap in the roll pin it will push out the slave pin. I always use some wide painter's tape along the side of the receiver to prevent marring while driving the roll pin in.

Looks like that hammer spring was getting you all frustrated 😂😂😂

@LouhMaylin Жыл бұрын

Great video. Will definitely help people understand how to put these together. The hammer spring looked to be incorrect though. The legs of the spring when pointing down should be on the flat side of the hammer and the hoop part of the spring should be resting against the hooked side of the hammer.

@user-ev4pb9xj7e 10 ай бұрын

I missed seeing exactly how you got that roll pin in on that bolt catch there🤔 I usually get the pin started first using my roll pin starter punch, drop in my bolt catch assembly then finish driving the pin on with a flat punch. Investing in the proper tools goes a long way when assembling anything.

Really great kit! So far my trigger guard roll pin and my bolt catch roll pin are too large for the holes. It’s a Ruger lower so it’s not a cheap no-name lower. What crap!

@dennismorgan7019 28 күн бұрын

Use Knipex pliers for the bolt catch pin and the trigger guard. Wrap the jaws with tape first.

@hershfam 6 ай бұрын

Instead of hammering the pin I used pliers to squeeze it in

Assembling the hammer spring, you showed it one way on the outside of the sickle shape, but when you put it into the receiver it was on the opposite end and inside hammer. I’m confused and stuck

@t3hb0ss 5 ай бұрын

I found it was easier to pound the rollpin in to the first part, aligning it with your fingers until its stable/hammered in just before the space for the bolt catch, and then put the bolt catch and finish hammering.

@wardzimmerman5404 7 ай бұрын

You point out that there is a large end of the spring when assembling the trigger parts but never show or say which end goes in first. Please add this in comments.

Im always looking for new techniques to make things easier for me just my .02

@David_Quinn_Photography 10 ай бұрын

the roll pin for the bolt release was the worst part, it would be nice if htey were already installed and I did notice I got an extra take down spring and detent but no extra buffer detent or spring thats what I lost in my entire build.

You can buy lowers where the bolt release is secured with a screw instead of a roll pin.

@michaelsalcido3736 11 ай бұрын

Did you have to have this sent to an ffl from PSA?

@scottandrews4540 11 ай бұрын

Only the stripped lower receiver is serialized... therefore that's the only item that needs to be sent to an FFL. Parts kit itself, all upper parts, can be sent directly to your home

@Sparks52 10 ай бұрын

The stripped lower must go through an FFL and it requires filling out an ATF Form 4473 plus a NICS Background Check. If you want to avoid that, get an 80% lower and mill out the trigger pocket, drill the trigger and hammer pin holes, and the selector lever hole. The 80% lower can be shipped directly to you. No ATF Form 4473 or NICS check. HOWEVER! If someone is a "Prohibited Person" who isn't allowed to own or possess a firearm (most often due to a Felony Conviction), having a stripped lower made from an 80% lower is just as illegal as possessing any other firearm and is worth 10 years in prison plus a $250k fine.

I dont think your buffer detent is right, you need another turn, it's not locking the rotation of the tube eh?

@scottnra 10 ай бұрын

It doesn't need to lock it. The buffer tube is held in place by the castle nut to lock it. It you screw it in too far to the buffer detent pin it won't move freely. The buffer tube simply retains it from coming out.

@gliscameria 10 ай бұрын

@@scottnra Then what's the purpose of that pin if it's not to lock the orientation of the tube? What is it there for?

Why does this video exist? Learn how to build a lower first, then build some lowers, then post a video "teaching" others to build lowers. Then you can actually show people how you build the lower, instead of constant errors and editing over the important parts.
