Hey guys like the title says im having a quite the time fitting this damn thing on my gun. Its mostly the top section now that im having problems with. TAKE A LOOK AT THE LINK TO PHOTOBUCKET. Ive watched the videos and i know what im supposed to do but its really off. It is defiantly not going in as smooth as they showed it. I would have to grind way to much off to fit, and im wondering if any one else has had this problem. I know there are tons of variances with these rifles but it cant be that far off. I had to dremel the corners of my receiver to get the bottom section on but once I did that she is tucked away perfectly with no movement.

Seems odd you'd have to dremel your reciever. I installed one on my 858 a long time ago and just had to file down the areas marked In yellow on the instruction pics that came with it. It took quite a bit however, and once I was done filing it was a bugger to install the upper. You have to squeeze the bejesus out of both with one hand and get that pin pushed in, they're not kidding when they say "pressure fit". After a few times of shooting and taking down for cleaning it became easier to take the pin out but still have to use a punch to drift it in and out. Just keep filing, checking and filing some more till it barely fits, then itl stay tight.
