    I have THREE Aero lowers and have not had a problem. If I were you I would contact them.

    Aero precision also makes a lot of the other manufacturer's receivers for them...

    I just put one together a few weeks ago and didn't have any hiccups.

    I got an Aero lower about a year ago. Fantastic lower for the price. No problems assembling the LPK. PMags and GI mags fall free. Only complaints I can think of would be the high shelf and the magwell isn't generously flared.

    Like I could ever afford a RDIAS anyways!

    I put an AP lower together a couple months back with a CMT LPK and had no issues. I would use one again if I needed another lower.

    I have never needed a ball peen hammer to assemble a lower- tight parts fit generally is good- fitting by using conservative strokes of needle files or steel wool or light sand paper has always done fine for me.

    The plier technique is not the correct way to install the bolt catch.

    Get the right tools.

    And sometimes, especially with pivot/push pins, some LPK and/or receivers have slightly thick finishes. If you get two such items together it can make it harder to insert them. I have had a couple of times where I have had to lightly work on the finish with emory cloth of a very fine grit. The goal is not to remove lots of material.

    The AP receiver I used had no issues. I believe my LPK was a RRA at the time (right after the election). My brother used one with a RRA LPK and had to work on the finish on the pins because one or the other was overly thick. (I am not talking about hard to push in but repeated rotation of the upper on the pin loosens it up -- a little tougher than that)

    I have two AeroPrecision lowers and they are flawless.
