Really? I was watching a guide and the dude said it HAD to be within a few thousandths tolerance.

If you're on Facebook, scope out the 80% builders group. I don't know how they do it, but there's no shortage of people making trigger pockets that look like a squirrel chewed them out, and depending on how bad it is, it's either good to go or they're told to JB Weld it and re-do it. lol. Figure it this way though, if you completely botch a lower, it's only $40 or $50. Not a big deal. They really aren't hard to do though, so don't be intimidated.

I've looked in some groups for the pistol frames. Some of the builds look like those people have no business using a power tool, let alone a gun, lol.

I've seen pistol frames that you CAN SEE DAYLIGHT through the pinholes of the gun, and the hole isn't even CLOSE to being round or smooth. I honestly have no clue how people could even do it without TRYING to make it as bad as possible. I swear, some of them look like they took it out of the jig and carved the pin holes with a pen knife.

LOLOLOL. Exactly! The bad builds are so bad, they have to be done on purpose.
