CavVet,
If your talking about the little round "nut", under the latch on the collapsible, there should be a tiny hole that extends through the "nut" and the bolt, that lil' hole takes a role pin. That roll pin stops the "nut" from spinning. I don't know the exact size of the pin, but call bBushmaster @ 1800-998-SWAT, not endorsing them, though they are good guys, its just that I have the most experience dealing w/ them. Any AR parts dealer will have the correct part. Online try Brownell's @ http://www.brownells.com/Default.aspx They may have it online. In the meantime if you absolutely need to shoot it, go w/ a paperclip, or any small pin, you can push through the holes. A lil' blue loctite will help too. NOT, HEAVY DUTY Loctite, will be tougher to get off and isn't necessary. Lots of luck -S2. |

But I have drill, great bits, vise, pins and WECSOG history. These will be upgraded, THANKX! |

I just checked mine, its a DPMS and it doesn't have the little hole either. I have the same problem but I don't use it anymore so it doesn't bother me.

Funny, I was going to add that if he hole wasn't there you could add it easily. Just make sure before you drill, the ass'y. that the nut's where you are going to need it. Lots o' luck. S2

Well I can tell you for a fact that is not true... Here at CavVet arms, I have personally installed a roll pin anti walk resister unit in less than 5 minutes in each Telestock on hand. If we can do it you can too! Is that fuckin thing off yet? OOPS It was REAL easy. Put nut in vise and start hole. Put nut on bolt and find proper setting. Finish hole & insert roll pin. 2 minutes start to finish. Thanks for the help fellas! |

Red Loctite works a lot easier....I hate assembling the tele-hardware with the anti walk pin, but then again when I have to do it, its 100s of stocks at a time [:p]

Have you ever wondered why the spooky types on the net, the ones in stan and iraq, have some sort of elastic band over the telestock???
Because the darned nut kept coming loose... |

A simple drop of Locktite will do the job quickly and easily. KISS. Has worked for me for many years.

Colt's collapsibles are also pinned.
Unless you've heard specifically otherwise, I believe those rubberbands are not for the nut. They are there for noise disciplne on stocks that rattle. |

My pre-ban Eagle Arms CAR stock has a roll pin. I thought everyone used a pin, it sounds like some manufacturers are starting to cut corners...[V] |

I just bought a couple of the stock pins, nuts and roll pins from Bushmaster, and changed them out on my stocks (including a CavArms stock)

The CAR stock I just got from RRA has the pin. The crappy $25 gunshow telestock it replaced did not.

I dont know what you guys are giving Bushy, etc for roll pins, but during on of my EARLY AR build/mods, I was one pin short. Went to the hardware store, bought a 1/2 dozen of damn near every pin they had. I think I paid a dollar something for all of them.
I am still using some of these pins, that has been YEARS ago...I am ready to go resupply! [;)] |
