Stag lower allen head screw question

[Derek0525]

Picked up a stag lower today at the gun shop and there was a Allen head screw with a green plastic tip on it score is maybe a 1/4" long put the lower together and everything works but have no idea what that screw is for?

where was the screw at, in the parts kit?? I dont think it goes to the lower.

 

[Derek0525]

It was in the box with the lower in a little baggy it didn't come with a parts kit.

 

[Derek0525]

I will take a picture of it tomorrow this is my 3rd build and have never seen one before.

 

[Widow maker 223]

I think someone messed up and threw it in the box.

The guy that put the screw in the box probly is still laughing about it.

Looks like a set screw for the grip hole. Used to take creep out of the trigger

I'm thinking the same thing as Midwest.

Iv never seen or heard any makers doing the set screw mod from the factory. But if its the same size mod away.

I believe both seekins precision and mega machine do I'm sure there are probably more.

agree. some lowers have an extra hole tapped under the pistol grip. It reduces the triggers take up.

I believe there are also lowers that use a plastic tipped set screw to apply tension to the upper receivers rear takedown lug. Takes the wobble out of a loose fit

I never checked for an extra hole when I put the grip on but there is no hole I can see under the trigger in the receiver. Not to worried about it just never got a lower with one of those in the package with it.
