| Greetings, Our Dept has decided to get out of the LEESO program and return the M-16's to the .GOV. About 15 years ago I removed the Auto Sears and converted the M16's to AR15 status. Well, 3 administration changes and a remodel of the Department and the Auto Sears I sealed in an envelop are gone. Brownells no longer carries them. M16Parts.com carries them. Has anyone done business with them and are they GTG? Better suggestions? |

My Colt SP1 Transferable Auto should be approved in the next few months, I’ve been wanting to have backup parts. Never know when they will try to take them away. |

I order from here https://www.midsoutharms.com/M16-Auto-Sear-with-Pin_p_1026.html Always a good experience. If you have to order a bunch, call them and they may cut you a deal. |

I have not been in on the meeting but just what the supervisor relayed back to me. |

Send them with an explanation letter explaining why the sears were removed and how they were lost. The worst they will do is get a Criminal Affairs Investigator to come by and document what you said is true so they can close the books. |

Feign ignorance and pretend like you don’t know anything about the internals. If you’re the actual certified armorer, tell them that’s how they have been since you can remember. Either way, it’s just taxpayer money. Maybe post in the EE and see if any dealers here have the quantity you need? |

| I believe Dennis Todd has them. You will need to send him an e-mail to inquire. |
