Posted Tuesday at 7:46 PM Does the lower receiver serial number match? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted yesterday at 2:06 AM The upper and lower are both stamped "249". See picture. I assume that is the matching assembly number. The actual serial of the receiver is M6813. I do see M6813 on the bolt release lever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 12 hours ago No, not exactly. The back of the lower where it pins to the upper should have a number which matches. The number you pictured is, I believe, the issue number for the country that at some point issued it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
