Missing in action its a good thing i dont have the upper yet now I have to get another detent.
It was fun putting one together after 16 years but It might be worth the 15 bucks not to get as pissed at yourself as I am right now.

It is recommended to do that inside a clear plastic bag, so if the spring or pin goes ballistic they don't get lost.

The important point of this handy tip is that I didn't hear about it till after I spent 30 minutes looking for mine when it went ballistic!  I got very lucky, I was able to find mine.

Yeah that handy little tool is worth the money.  I was told by my buddy who's an Army Ranger to put a bed sheet over me when it came to that part.

Hey, we used to have to tell my brother the same thing when he was a teenager, something he didn't go blind.

You don't need the tool so much as something like a dry cleaners clear bag or a sheet, something to catch the parts when they go flying.
