Picked up a couple MOE grips and neither wants to fit my LMT receiver. The stock grip fits just fine. Before I take some sandpaper to this thing, is there some special trick unique to installing the MOE grip?

twist a little.. get one corner on, then twist/shove the other on

What he said. The 20 or so I have installed have been tight. The last one on a Roggio lower which was all kinds of messed up i hd to rubber malet on.

He needs a total revamp of his line as my mag well was out of spec and needed filled, threads for the RE to large and the area for the PG was wider than a Colt, LAR, LMT, SD and POF lower and it was a mofo to get the MOE on it.

Right before Roggio replaced my lower, my FFL sent him a copy of the TDP and lower blue print from Colt. So I hope he used those materials wisely and put them to use.

I know Ross was very appreciative when he got that schematic. I guess he called and talked to my FFL for about an hour after he recieved that fax.
