| So I completed my Noveske AR build yesterday. My first ever AR build and it looks sweet. Out of pure excitement I was using the charging handle and pulling the trigger to show both my wife and son. I was doing a gun check and when I pushed the bolt catch in the roll pin fell out!!! Nothing else fell out, show when I found it I pushed it back in with my fingers? I bought a Stagarms kit and up to that point everything fit together perfect. Its my first build so I have no extra's so what do I do? Is a bot catch roll pin something people sell? I guess I'm going to try to call Stag and see if they will send me another. UGH |

OAL = 0.437 DIA = 0.093 This pin should go in tightly but should be free on the bolt catch itself so that there is no binding. Check before driving pin. Edit: Some billet lowers use a modified set screw instead of a roll pin for the bolt catch. |

This would be my guess as well. If you don't have a caliper, I highly recommend getting one.
