Put you a drop of machine oil under it, but really you should buy a tool. Worth it.

in the meantime you can use a screwdriver to turn it and a bullet tip to depress the lock.

Well the whole rifle is going to get rattlecanned anyway, so I don't think a scratch would matter much.
The whole thing is a $650 beater carbine anyway. I'll give it a shot of oil and let it sit overnight, maybe it'll feel like moving in the morning. |

Sounds interesting, can you post some pics of it before you paint it?

Sure, I'm picking the lower up from my FFL in about two hours anyway, and it'll take less than an hour to get the lower parts kit in and everything. |

Anyway, here you go.
$350 EE special never-fired RO723 clone upper $50 PSA blem'd A2 Lower $109 PSA lower build kit $100 PSA no-logo BCG/CH $610, not counting shipping or transfer on the lower. It's got one of them 1/7 twist DSA 14.5" M4 barrels with a perm'd A2X hider. Not really retro retro, but you asked so there it is. Needs one of them repro CAR stocks, I think. And maybe an A1 grip. It did come with both a set of 6-hole and 7-hole Carbine handguards, though. |

Nice looking Carbine. A2 grip is the technically correct grip, but I hate them, so I'd forgive you for changing it.
