[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Ejection Hinge Pin Snap Ring

Posted: 3/31/2010 2:07:20 PM EDT

Went to install the snap ring today and it flew off. I cannot find it any where.

Can things be found at a hardware store and if so what size do I ask for, or where can I buy just the snap ring?
Thanks

Take the hinge rod with you to the hardware store.

Common term is an "E clip". Common term here is "Flea". You know why.
I've read that NAPA has them. Probably won't find AR in their computer

Also on Valkyrie tactical they have the set (spring, rod, clip ) for 5 bucks. They also have the Noveske (suprise cock fag), and a Git r Done and Break Yo self port doors.

As a matter of fact I just lost my e-clip the other day, so I ordered several more from Brownell's - I think they were 0.35 each. Luckily I had a spare used receiver that I could cannibalize for parts. While I was at it I ordered a few other spare parts - firing pin retainers, firing pin, gas tube roll pins, etc. just to make the shipping worthwhile.
