lower fire contro wall thickness

hello

i am looking for a very specific piece information . i need to know the wall thickness of the the lower receiver were the trigger and hammer go ( fire control pocket).

if anyone would be so kind as to measure them both using a caliper it would be very much appreciated.

i as this because after spending some time at the range with my buddy i looked at his AR and noticed that one the receiver wall thickness on the selector side is thinner than the one on the opposite side. i measured it using a caliper and got .086" and .107" .

i thank u in advance

I have a lower that suffers from this sloppy work too. I noticed it after I SBR'd it.

It doesn't appear to affect function. If the problem were bad enough, you'd get your BCG rubbing on one side of the Buffer tube.
