I did a search going 90 days and can not find anything on this!
Perma Pin Anyone has it installed and can provide some info? |

Quoted:
I put one in a Young BCG. The thing looks like a nail someone modified in the field, but it's definitely harder to screw up than the cotter pin (that I bent). It's not a critical, must-have item, but it's a bit nicer than the standard pin. I picked one up. THANKS! |

Like I said, it looks like a small nail that's been improvised for AR use. You won't regret it, though. |

They are very similar (if not identical) to the original firing-pin retaining pin in the Fairchild-ArmaLite guns, though those were chromed. The guys in the Retro forum know all about them. Nice, yes, but a seven-dollar part to do a job that can be done by an eighty-cent part is not necessarily for everyone.
