I shimmed my loose fitting upper/lower with some tape between the two halves. I put the tape on the ridge just above the rear take down pin. I know, kinda ghetto, but oh well.... -

Leave it alone since it's normal and supposed to be there by design?Please read the Calguns Wiki
Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes...Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.

Jeff,
You understand that the more you FIX the play in the upper/lower, the WORSE it gets as you use it, right?
Leave it alone.
The fate of the wounded rest in the hands of the ones who apply the first dressing.

i just use a sliver of tape.. been doing it for a while and none of my rifles have become "looser".
nothing like trying to squeeze out a grouping at 150yd, and your lower/stock assembly is jiggling around. if having a loose gun is normal then ill gladly be abnormal in this case seeing as how all my guns shoot exactly where i want them to and never malfunctionLast edited by Ballistic043; 04-28-2010, 10:15 AM.Comment

I had the same problem with my AR build I finished yesterday doesn't have much play but a hairline gap between upper and lower,so I looked at my other AR seems to be the same. I'll just leave it alone shouldn't be a problem.Comment
