    Looks like the KNS anti-roll pins I have, Greg asked me about them and I told him the story of my hammer pin walking on me causing a 2 round burst (at an indoor range in California no less), since then I've sworn by them as necessity. This thread is awesome and congrats to you guys on getting everything together, be warned it's addicting. I have my next build planned already just a matter of justifying the money, etc. Already have a good amount of parts for it but it is going to be a nothing fancy stock M16A2 clone for nostalgia just like I was issued in bootcamp. Have the A2 stock that was on my other rifle and swapped it for a Magpul PRS, will have the LPK once I get the new trigger for my other AR and steal it from that one, really just need the upper (20" barrel and fixed carrying handle), then I'll have 16", 20", and 24" AR's lol. The lower I want for it is backordered 15-16 weeks right now but hopefully won't be by the time I actually go to order it, wishing I would have picked one up when I saw them in all the gunshops around Camp Pendleton (JD Machine is a San Diego based company), was a little too moto at the time but perfect for what I want it for now, since it's gonna be a clone of my bootcamp issue I feel this receiver is fitting. JD Machine Tech, Inc. 5.56mm/.223 U.S. Marines Lower Receiver don't know if I'm gonna get the paint fill or not, maybe, kinda like it.
