I completed my Double Star lower receiver this evening. I am happy with how it turned out. I used a DPMS parts kit and everything went together well with the exception of the takedown pin. When I installed the detent and tightened down the stock, I couldn't budge the takedown pin. I filed off the front of the detent and it works now but doesn't "click" into place when closed and is a little loose. The detent keeps it from falling out. Has anyone had this problem and how did you fix it. Have Fun, Geof |
The front of the detent is tapered , maybe should of shortened the spring a bit . I have noticed a difference in some detents , some just seem to work better than others . But the DPMS kit I used worked fine . Replaced some with Bushy's detents and they were very smooth . |
