That is really not the best set of instructions in the world.
I think a milling machine would have been a better purchase.I ordered a drill press for the rest of it. Doing it with a 12v hand drill takes way to long
I didnt think so either, but I cant tell if you are being sarcastic, so
Probably, but them being $400 to $3000 vs $90 , ill deal with the little more timeI think a milling machine would have been a better purchase.
That hole is supposed to be there. It's the dedent pin for the selector.Upon closer inspection after taking the jig apart, it appears I drilled a hole straight through to the where the hand grip goes.

Everything you need to know.So I started drilling my 80% lower.
I got to a part in the instructions where I got a little baffled.
The circled holes, I drilled to 1.25, because the wording said the most screws to the left.
Am I screwed?
Did I ruin my lower?
Or, do I now have to run a pre-assembled self contained trigger?

The safety selector wont work without it.I havent seen that on other lowers
Once you use a mill you will never go back. Having something to reference would be a great help.Probably, but them being $400 to $3000 vs $90 , ill deal with the little more time
The rear of the pocket looks a little far back for an AR not that it wouldn't work?Here in redView attachment 394595

That's fine. You are just making a pocket for the trigger components to work in. You can make it bigger for the M16 cut. Also for the future undersize your hammer and trigger pins and use an anti walk pin set with the connector because there is a lot of pressure from the hammer that will egg out the hole.Sorry, I thought I drilled it when I went to deep.
I thought I drilled down through the safety.
Bit I did hit the safety cylinder area with that misdrill

Once you have it you will have use for it afterwards!I dont doubt it, but don't have the $1000+ to get one, or have the use for it afterwards

ok, i see it. the bottom hole is for the safety selector detent pin and spring. that looks fine. the hole on the left on the back wall of the hole that is at an angle should not be there.. but I don't think will get in your way. You can probably fill it with epoxy. I don't think it will effect the function of the gun.Sorry, I thought I drilled it when I went to deep.
