Bsands wasn't happy with what he bought so we took it back, it's as simple as that. I only posted the pictures to show everyone that the the upper fit fine on a Diemaco since many people were bashing NEA.
 
That Diemaco lower is obviously out of spec then....

If the NEA upper drops right on with no problems, that can be the only answer.

*sarcasm off*
 
Bsand, you should be ashamed of yourself. What you did is very low and if you had any morals you would pay for shipping out of your pocket and take a 20% hit on your refund for their trouble.

If you changed your mind and decided you didn't want the upper you purchased you do what the rest of us do and sell it on the EE. Making up some BS about it not fitting any of your lowers and asking for a refund because it is out of spec is dirty pool.
I hope you don't do business on the EE as I won't deal with you in the future.

Your lies stirred up another undeserved NEA bash and hurt their business for no reason.

If a particular lower in spec or not cannot be judged with just a lower or even a few different sets of lowers.
There should be set of gauges with GO/ NGO gauges to confirm if every holes are in spec position wise
and size wise. The manufacturer should have this gauges.
But even with this kind of gauges can only catch 90% of good parts while some good part may be misjudges as NG
if they are close to the end of spec.
NEA can put it onto their CMM to confirm if it is Good or NG.

It has already been shown there was nothing wrong with the upper and the guy just changed his mind and said it was out of spec to get a refund.
Douchebaggery at it's finest f:P:
 
Now wait a tick, you previously said in post #59 that your Bushmaster upper didn't fit your polymer80 lower and now you are saying it fit perfectly??? Care to explain?



Didn't fit then fits perfectly...this thread is really starting to stink.
You need to read more carefully. The nea upper didn't fit on my bushmaster lower. The bushmaster upper fits on my lower, just like it always did. The keyhole upper I got from ee fits without any adjustments just stiff pin.

Did I once use your company's name? No so instead of keeping private matters private you could have easily sent a pm or email. Instead you choose to do this in a public fourm, real classy.
 
....real classy.

Yes. Unlike a lot of users, and a few of the businesses, Ryan is.

And if I was a business owner, I sure would want to know which users were pulling scams and bull#### after getting buyers remorse.

We've all been done a great service. I have another user on my list of people and businesses not to deal with and I'm very glad for it.

Started using the ignore feature for this very reason.
 
Ya no I sent multiple high resolution photos to him, so there was zero buyers remorse considering I sat on it for a week until Nea got back to me on the quad rail not clearing the front ear. Got them agree to re work the rail. After I removed the rail the pivot fit yet the take down pin didn't clear. Tried it on a bushmaster lower same deal. I take down the rifle til the rear pin got removed. Lined up the front no issue go to inspect rear take down and there is 1 mm of metal inside the hole just like all my pic show. Then I finally contacted for a refund, so no way was that any remorse, I wanted a functioning rifle for my weekend at the range. Never got it to sit right cause I'm not going to take a dremel to something I just bought for almost 800. Fast forward a week, new upper comes clears the front ears and the rear pin started to engage just needed a tap to completely seat.
 
Hey, whatever guys. I have the same issue as bsand, but were bashers?

My upper (stock factory NEA 10.5, new style rail/barrel nut installed by NEA, not me) won't fit Colt, DPMS or Bushmaster lowers I tried. The front pivot pin won't engage using any of those lowers. Well, whatever. I just have to use it on the NEA lower it came with, but it is disappointing I can't use it elsewhere. It appears to me that the pivot pin holes on the lower contact the end of the rail, preventing it from properly lining up allowing the pin to engage the upper. I never got it on the other lowers so I can't comment on the rear takedown pin hole, but it fits the NEA lower just fine.

I think you read it differently than it was intended. I was trying to say you weren't happy with the product so we took it back. It wouldn't have mattered if it fit or didn't...we had a customer that wasn't happy with the product so it came back.

I posted the pictures of it fitting the Diemaco so that people could see it did and was in spec...if not it would have negatively impacted NEA's new forged uppers.
 
Guys, please stop bashing Bsands. He had a product he wasn't happy with so we took it back. It didn't fit on his lower and that's why he bought it. The fact that it fit fine on the Diemaco isn't important with regards to bsand...what was important is that he wasn't happy with the product so we took it back.

My NEA is a couple of years old, so I don't know if its been changed since then, to be fair, and NEA did replace my rail for free.
 
NEA now uses forged uppers and lowers and they should fit everything. They even have the uppers and lowers of various companies to test random NEA uppers and lowers on.

I will say the pins are often tight but that's the case on their own guns (ie NEA upper and lower). I don't think you'll find a forged NEA that has any slop or a big gap between the upper or lower.

To be fair, forged or billet won't make any difference in terms of dimension which is the main concern here.
NEA should have a Guage set or even better a CMM to check their product dimension. But if they use some uppers from different manufacturer, no matter how many they use, for this purpose as their gauges, this would be their main root cause of why some of their lowers fit but some doesn't fit.
But I think NEA should know this.

I offered to build gauges for the owner a couple of years ago. never heard back.
