Not on hand. I can probably use the post office kiosk though,

Was really just curious as to what these are, probably wasn't going to try to use them, but they seemed oddball for sure.

There was a bunch of various AR parts, including a incomplete LPK, which I just found this morning isn't standard either. I started putting the lower together and the magazine catch arm is considerably longer than the slot in the receiver. I'm guessing its 308 too. So I guess I need a different LPK

yes 308 is longer, you'd almost have to put them side by side

Looks like the take down pins are longer and thicker than 5.56 as well. Looks like I got (two) long pins. I'm starting to think this LPK was just a bag of leftover crap. Looks like some forward assist parts, maybe 308 bolt parts(?), etc.

Selector looks like it will fit. Bolt catch looks like it will fit. Trigger/Hammer/Disco look right, dunno.
