The above pins were added as a bonus because my lower was shipped defective and had to be repaired. I cannot figure out how to remove them so I can put my lower back together. Has anyone ever used these before. If so, how are they removed? |

not much of a "bonus" huh. where are they from? Tactical Innovations made the lower. Their web store says nothing about these pins and I have never seen them before. They did fix the problem I had which was a purple finish on the receiver at no cost, however. |
| So apparently they are tapped out from the side shown in the picture. They are anti rotating because the other side of the pin is a hex head that fits in the bushing, keeping it from rotating. I'm thankful I don't need a special tool. I'm also surprised no one else had seen these before. |

Yea, my thought exactly, we may need to review LEO-Nidas's mechanical inclination rating. J/K'ing I'm sure you slapped your head and let out your best Homer Simpson 'DOH' when they told you that on the phone.

Very Innovative solution to a non existent problem. Oh wait.. you said a defective lower. Send the whole mess back and get a new lower. This is beyond M4forgery or Franken gun. On the plus side. I've never seen a pentagonal spanner nut. Looks to be well made. Send it back 458 |
