| I recently purchased a used barrel that was advertised in the EE section and have a small problem with it... The taper pins seem to of been removed excessively or possibly removed from the wrong direction... I have several new pins and all of them are just a few thousands to small to achieve that tight fit that I would expect to have... My question is, does anyone sell over sized taper pins? If they are available, where might I find them? |

Thanks Stickman, im going to check with them to see... I found another place called GunAccesories.com... They have them for $1.95 each plus $9.95 shipping... Im hoping to locate them for about a $1.95 with a little cheaper shipping... I'll let you guys know how Brownells works out... ETA: All I could find at Brownells is the COLT and DPMS standard pins... |
Sounds like an excuse to buy more stuff. "But honey, I really did HAVE TO to buy $50 worth of parts, honest"  WIZZO |
Charles, I just found them at a reasonable price and already ordered them... MidwayUSA has them and the total is $7.85 shipped... Thank you though for the offering, that was very kind of you  Thank you to all for the help...

Adding GunAccessories.com to my shitlist. I'll be damned if I'll buy anyting from an outfit that charges $1.95 for $0.50 pins and then has the goddam gall to charge $9.95 shipping!!

Good advice and already done The pins came in todays mail and are already installed... I was prepared for the job, I already own the reamer Ive installed and replaced FSB's before but this is the first time I ever needed to use over sized pins...
|
The pins that Midway sent me were definitly over sized... I had to ream the holes to get the correct fit... The pins pressed in real nice and tight and the rifle zeroed in at 2-clicks of center ... It went smooth and was an easy repair...
