Fellow Team members...

I need to resupply my AR lower receiver parts bin ...I've been scavenging parts for repairs and such.

Can anyone recommend a supplier for bulk parts like springs, detents, and other assorted lower parts? ( this is not an offer to buy or sell....just looking for advise on a supplier)

Thanks guys

There is a lot of guys on ebay that sell "Oops" kits that have springs, detents, etc. at good prices often times with free shipping, like I always seem to need extra detents, I pick them up in packs of 10 with springs for $7.99 each, free shipping.

Thanks ...I'll check it out.

I'd like to have 10 of every part sans the FCG just for repairs or those "opps" moments.

Rock River Arms will sell individual parts and they are good quality.

White Oak Armament.... Great quality parts, cheap shipping and they ship the same day or the next.

It is kind of funny,

The last packet of 10 detents that I purchased off ebay came from an address that I was familiar with, when it was all said and done, I tracked them down to White Oak.  The only reason I bring this up, sometimes these companies are also selling on ebay under different names and you are still getting good quality stuff.

I was going to post this.  The only thing I will say is that after I make an order I'm never sure what's going on until I get the shipped email a couple days later.

Primary Arms is good, but I needed to rebuild an A2 rear sight, and RRA was definitely the place to go.  It's the only place I've used for small parts since.

If you truly want "10 of every part" except for the FCG, maybe this is the way to go:

Red Barn Armory has a "build your own" lower parts kit. I'm assuming you don't want 10 extra grips, safety selectors,  and trigger guards so......

If you leave out the grip, safety selector, FCG, trigger guard, and go with mil-spec takedown/pivot pins the kits are $24.99 each.

If you buy 10 kits that's $250 but would you have more invested if you tried to buy each part in packs of 10 each?? IDK?





Midway has spring and pin kits for $10 a pop.

Lots of options here.

I would be wary of anything bearing the AR Stoner name. I have not heard much good about them, other than their low price tags.
CMMG packages a "pins and springs" kit.
Brownell's usually has 5 and/r 10 packs of each individual piece.

AR Stoner is Midway's house brand, the same as buying anything from Brownells that carries their name as the MFG. Obviously neither is actually made by Midway or Brownells but rather sourced from various vendors.
I have used several AR Stoner products, from barrels to LPKs and have always been pleased with the quality of the items.
