The 2A Armament™ Titanium takedown pin set features a through drilled design for maximum weight savings in a standard .250 pin size. The head of each pin also incorporates a pocketed feature to reduce weight. Each pin is machined with a single operation on our 8-Axis CNC Machines for true concentricity, and consistency.

The 2A Armament titanium takedown pins are aesthetically pleasing on both our BALIOS-lite receiver sets, as well as other vendors product.

Did you guys test these for debris?
Just curious, specifically with the takedown pin. Any chance of dust/dirt getting into the lower receiver and FCG? They look fantastic. Thanks. |

No problems that I can think of... It's a through hole, so if dirt gets in one side, it can only go out the other. If anything were to stay in the rear lug, it would be carried out by it when opening I would think. |

Glad to see you ran with my idea/suggestion on these! (In your lightweight upper andlower thread a few months ago I requested that you all make a run manufactured this way and you see said you'd add it to the list). I'll order a set in a month or two. Any plans for aluminum pins manufactured in a similar fashion? |

After testing our adjustable carrier to it's capabilities, we will make a few titanium versions. However that could be down the road a ways. With the Xanthos set, rails, and other projects on the horizon, we are picking and choosing what needs to get done.

You guys put out some awesome shit. I just want to give you a shoutout for being a good company. After reading the mess that Mako got themselves in a few threads down with the Mepro true dot RDS, it was good to see something positive from a company that actually takes care of their customers. Keep on keepin' on 2AA. That is all.

I had some noveske pins cerakoted for a build. I don't have a lot of rounds through the gun yet but it's holding up better than I expected on the portion of the pin that slides in the upper. |

We keep talking about doing them in black, but I have yet to find the time to hammer out the details with the guys.
Aluminum would be bad in my honest opinion, I think they would gall real bad in the track. |

Aluminum is lighter but also weaker. So I'd use aluminum for some of the parts.
