Finally putting my lower together... having trouble getting the roll pin for the bolt catch...
Any tips to get that thing in?

If you don't have roll pin holders/punches, I've done quite a few with just a set of channel locks. Tape the hell out of the receiver and the channel locks though, and even then you run a pretty high risk of scratching the receiver.

If you have the starter AND the pin punch set - and it may be too late for this.
Don't laugh - LUBE, LUBE, LUBE - I ultimately had to just get really aggressive with the first one and finally got it going.
If you don't have the starter, you can use tape and get it going with a regular punch. I would tape the hell out of that side of lower, whether you use the starter, the punch and tape OR any of the channel lock/pliers options.
