Re: LRB Receiver Group Buy Update
I remember a time ago when someone attempted to install the charger clip guide from the wrong side and broke off the front portion of the dovetail and returned it as defective. I'm glad for the disclaimer too.

How about the guy that bought an SAI receiver, put the legs in a vise and tried to turn a barrel in with a pipe wrench, broke a leg off the receiver and told SAI he dropped it on the floor and it broke off.

M14 building is not exactly something a novice can just slap together with rudimentary tools and no training.

Yep, not long ago there was a dude using a couple of 2x4s for a receiver wrench. He went on to impress some fools until he died last year.

Re: LRB Receiver Group Buy Update
Few more photos of receivers per the request of Pat C.
Receivers are about as nice as they can be. Bunch of different bolts slipped in and ran smoothly. 5 different mfg op rods with as new tabs went in " and out" with no binding. New Barrels hand timed right in the window. Could not ask for anything more.
