I need to replace a broken teardrop forward assist.
Is it as simple as just puching out the rollpin and replacing the unit?

Yup.  Just pop the pin.


Want a free never-issued Bushmaster tear-drop assembly, spring and pin?

Little more than that, you need to make sure that the roll pin while being driven back in is in the flat section of the FA.  If the FA is slighty cocked, you can bind the whole works up.

Thats why I used the same punch that drifts the pin out to hold the assembly in place.  I tapped the pin back in with a small plastic mallet, and it pushes the punch out of the way.

What is this, the government cheese line?
We only give our extra parts to newbies in dire need of replacement parts.  It's our way of suckering them in to save their pennies and get hooked like the rest of use (like we really need 8 AR rifles clutter up the whole left hand of the safe).
