The guy who bought them has been dragging his feet returning it. In the meantime the guy who took the other upper found it did not fit on his lower so he swapped with the other of the 3 which did fit. He built it out and the barrel alignment is so terrible he says it's unusable. Also the guy who bought them had also bought a SOTA lower and has discovered that none of his magazines drop free from it. So now he's got a 3 uppers and a lower all of which need to be returned. I'll post an update when I hear how that goes.
Buyer beware on off brand lowers. I got an expensive billet lower from a smaller outfit that would not drop free. Their response was to run a mag in and out until it breaks in!! This was a anodized aluminum lower. I'd be old and grey before I wore through the anodizing let alone remove any material with a magazine. Needless to say I never used it. Stick with the known brands for lowers. "Cry once, buy once" applies to a lot of things in life.
Hopefully they take care of this in a timely manner. They are just north of the cities if you want to drive up.
