Anyone had any problems with SanTan billet uppers?  I helped a friend assemble an AR today and had several problems.  First the buffer retainer pin absolutely would not fit inside the hole in the upper.  I ended up drimmeling the pin around it to get it to fit (spikes parts kit).  Then putting in the Seekins barrel it was extremely hard to get in   Took 15+ min and had to finish it off by using the nut to pull it the width of the barrel pin.  I have a Geissele reaction rod and was very hard to fit in the upper down to the barrel.  Then when we put in the bolt it was quite tight.  It's a 300 blk and i told him to expect feeding issues because the bolt was so tight.  Told him to sit for 30+ min and just pull the bolt back over an over to try to work it.  I don't expect that is normal but any one had that prob?

EDIT: This may prob need to be in the AR Discussion forum instead....
