Although I've never had to replace any of the parts due to failure - consider bolt/carrier parts - ie. firing pin and retaining pin, extractor, extractor spring, ejector parts, and perhaps a D-Fender ring of somesort for the extractor.
Other than that, I myself have never experienced any sort of catastrophic failure of the trigger group, but having an extra disconnect & spring might not be a bad I idea. |

Have an extra AR ;)
I have a smart parts bag, it consists of a firing pin, all the springs, pins and an extractor. I have never had a failure yet, so it's been sitting in my drawer. |

If you're talking about spare parts for an AR-15, I'd get a firing pin, extractor assy, gas rings, and lower spring kit - that shouldn't set you back too much, and will cover you pretty well against a typical parts breakage...

For the most part, they are universal.

Some Colt's have non-standard fire control parts/pins. If you have a Colt you may need the Colt parts kit listed on the Bushmaster site.

I keep a spare bolt/carrier assembly.It might not seem very cost effective but at least you wont have to take apart your carrier and you know you will been building an AR anyway and you will be one part closer to finishing it!!
