I assume that the stripped lower is a SunDevil.
It sounds like a tensioning screw used to eliminate the dreaded wiggle between the upper and lower. Performs the same function as an AccuWedge by pressing up into the rear takedown lug. Necessity is definately questionable but is not as likely to cause FCG issues as the wedge.
That sounds more like a trigger pre-travel adjustment screw similar to those used on Defensive Edge ("Sully") and Territorial Gunsmiths SLR15 lowers.
Yup, it could be one of the pre-travel screws as well.
Is the threaded hole in question in front of the grip screw, toward the trigger angled toward the FCG at about a 45 degree angle, or behind it, near the grip radius pointing straight up toward the take-down hole?
:rolleyes:
Rather than making everyone guess wtf you're talking about. Howz about posting a picture or a more detailed description, such as position, lower brand, measurements/location of said hole, something to go on besides the nebulous scraps you've given us so far...
Could it be an air pocket from a poor casting? What about a place to store extra ammo? I know, I know, it's an extra hole!
Do you have a picture perhaps?
+1 for picture request.
