Part 9:
IDIOCITY, ie STUPIDITY...definition: med. jur. That state of the mind which cannot perceive and embrace the data presented to it by the senses; and therefore the stupid person can, in general, form no correct judgment. It is a want of the perceptive powers. Ray, Med. Jur. c. 3, Sec. 40. Vide Imbecility.
This post concerns the DPMS LR series rifles only.
DPMS decided to use the standard AR15 bolt catch and button on the LR series rifle, even though the receiver is almost 1/4" wider at this point.
This results in the stock ALUMINUM button usually having only 2 (TWO) threads engaged...... CHECK YOURS!!
This is a major malfunction waiting to happen....please reference definition above.
Anyway, this is how I fixed it; buy an extended STEEL button, this is the one I used......

Take a file or a belt sander and cut off all the "oversized" part, making a long, standard sized button.
This will allow at least 4-5 STEEL threads to secure the button, it's a little higher than stock, but you could cut it down more if you wanted it shorter.
