[QUOTE="pondskipper, post: 1312861, member: 26430"] A side note. Fitment between the mil-spec forged upper and lower receiver, as long as the are within tolerance and function properly, does NOT matter or affect accuracy, I did try several different things to get rid of it with my forged receiver and in the end all they did was make it more difficult to get the upper and lower apart, the accuwedge took the slop out but accuracy didn't improve at all and over time the compressive force exerted on it was enough to cause it to have permanent marks left in it and became loose over time. The jp enterprises locking rear takedown pin was another thing I tried, which did firmly lock the two together with no slop anymore but again, accuracy was not improved and taking it out to clean the gun was more trouble than it was worth to me from a maintenance standpoint and seeing as how there was no gain in accuracy so I took it out and pit the original takedown pin back in and just lived with the play. The billet receiver set has no slop or play between the matched upper and lower set when you push the pins in but for the price it shouldn't and I know this is not something which improves accuracy for a fact. Honorable mention would be the radian raptor charge handle, for a scoped ar that's used for hunting purposes and may likely be shot from your strong side at times or you need to rack a round in quick this things a life saver, its well designed and executed, as well as being aesthetically pleasing to the eye. With the diameter of the pins used on the latch handles I HIGHLY doubt ill ever have to worry about it. [/QUOTE]
