    Upper to Lower play

    One solution that will help "too much play" between the upper and lower is the over sized pivot and take down pins from ArmaLite

    A cigarette butt works, too. Or you can just not worry about it.

    I like being able to push the pins in and out with just finger pressure.

    An accuwedge is another good $3 solution if you must, but I haven't found a need for one.

    The play doesn't effect function so I don't mess with it.

    What happens when the cigarette butt gets in the way of the hammer?

    I guess it's one more reason to quit.

    The best solution I have found is to not even worry about it.

    It is nice to be able to disassemble your rifle without tools. These pins seem unnecessary to me but to someone who wants tight upper/lower fit they are better than a plastic wedge.

    Your very first post on this site and you're suggesting gear made by Armalite, directly from Armalite? With a link?
    Sounds to me like shady advertising on Armalite's end.
