NightStalker Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 Working on my first AR308 lower on this fine Father’s Day, and noticed the mag catch doesn’t seem to thread into the button very far. I’m using an Aero M5 parts kit on an Aero lower. I usually thread the catch in flush with the button. it does seem to work fine when I put a mag in just wondering if I have an AR15 mag catch.

Savage11006 Posted June 20, 2022 Report Share Posted June 20, 2022 That's how mine is on my aero as well. It's threaded in there farther then you realize. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shooterrex Posted June 20, 2022 Report Share Posted June 20, 2022 Push in the threaded part with a punch and see if you can't get it to turn a time or two more. I install the mag catch before I install the bolt catch so it's not in the way when I'm screwing in the mag catch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted June 20, 2022 Report Share Posted June 20, 2022 That's normal on the large-frame guns. No worries, run it like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
