The front pin is longer than standard because the Aero casting is thicker in the front.
I also had to get a longer mag button. The one included in Aero's LPK wasn't long enough. The button was recessed below the lower before it dropped the mag. I didn't like that and got a Guntech extended mag release from eBay.
You about had me scratching my head and ready to shoot my calipers. The I noted the inches. Lol
Thanks for the heads up I. The extended mag catch. Armslite makes one but it's expensive and hard to find.
I opted to use Forward Controls EME-C mag button. For $8 bucks you can't go wrong.
But I like the idea of using a more correct mag catch. I don't know why Aero puts he AR-15 mil spec mag catch in the 308 LPK.
That's another reason I didn't bother buying it.

I just picked up my receivers this morning, they look great!
Note for reference: the KAC takedown and pivot pins are the correct length, but they are slightly oversized. My caliper shows them at .280".
