    Well played. UW, is that one in the picture the latest one you grabbed from Rainier? If it is, I'm guessing it's from the same batch as mine. I'll be curious if you have any takedown pin/upper lug tightness.

    I almost guarantee it will. I base that opinion off the last 3 I've purchased. One is so tight I regret SBR'ing it.

    Sir, a member of your stature should not have such dross smirching his fine cadre of killin' tools. Please send that to me for immediate proper disposal. :D

    How long did you look in the thesaurus before you posted that Joel?

    I have a gen 2 chainsaw lower in the closet awaiting building. Hopefully I don't run into these issues

    Haha. I've handled a bunch of lowers, some nicer or better machined, some with cooler features but the Gen 2 Noveske is by far my most prized. I'm always on the lookout for more

    Well good there's hope yet! I was thinking of SBR'ing the Noveske lower but I think I make it into an SPR so I have a good lower to take across state lines without all the hassle. The kitty will be an SBR for sure!

    My one and only Gen 1 Chainsaw lower is just a hair tight with a few of my uppers. Definitely doesn't require tools to separate the upper from the lower, even with the tightest fitting of them. I SBR'd this lower, so i made sure to test for fit before i had the engraving done, and deffo before sending $200 off to Uncle Sam. All of my other Chainsaw parts (Gen 2 lowers, forged uppers, as well as Noveske marked MUR uppers).

    At least you can get the pins through with a mallet and punch. I bought a custom upper from Daniel Defense a couple years ago and couldn't get the takedown pin to go in. I then tried getting a spare pin to go through the hole on just the upper, wouldn't even begin to go. An email to DD revealed that they'd had an issue with some undersize takedown pin holes. I should've sent it back, but that was more of a pain in the ass than spending a few minutes drilling the hole out with a 1/4" drill bit. But in your case, since the lower is the issue, i'd send it back and get Noveske to cover FFL and state fees. If enough people send back out of spec product, maybe it'll start to hurt their bottom line and be the kick in the balls needed to get their QA/QC back in line.
