So I order the last two pieces I need to complete my first ever build. A gas block front site tower from YHM and a carbine gas tube from Brownells. They both arrived today and I think I'm all set to start wrenchin'! WRONG! Neither included a gas tube pin. C'mon, is that really too much to ask for? OK, so what size pin do I need and can I get it at the local Home Depot or am I stuck waiting another week (not to mention having to pay probably $8 S&H) for a $0.08 pin? Thanks. Gimlet |
