Re: AR lower missing a roll pin nut...

I searched anti-walk pins and that looks like a screw that goes into the pin to keep it from sliding out. This looks like the roll pin hole is oversized and is threaded and a nut with the proper roll pin diameter is threaded into accept a standard size roll pin. I may have to try another forum to s...

Re: AR lower missing a roll pin nut...

No, it's the pin above the trigger. The nut I think is just how the company designed their lower, because I don't see any other like it. May be why it doesn't look like they sell them anymore. If I knew how to post a picture from my phone, I would post it.

AR lower missing a roll pin nut...

I've got a Tactical Innovations lower. It appears to have a nut that threads in for the role pin locations. Anyone have an idea on where one might find replacements. I've contacted the manufacturer, and not heard back...but they appear to no longer be in the business of making lowers.

Re: Daniel Defense Omega Rail not aligned slightly...

I'm not sure I was clear in my orifinal message. I was able to remove the flash hider after a lot or force to the vise and a lot of arm force. My main area of concern was the fact the rail appeared to have shifted...be it from the rail shifting or the barrel nut turning. I appreciate the responses g...

Re: Daniel Defense Omega Rail not aligned slightly...

Believe it or not, I let it set in water overnight when I first tried it last week. But I was using two pieces of wood and no leather. I had no luck. But a buddy of mine that's a bit more into guns than I told me not to dick with it anymore, he had a set of barrel vise blocks at his house. I wasn't ...

Re: Daniel Defense Omega Rail not aligned slightly...

If alignment is still off then the barrel nut moved. Remove the rail and tweak the barrel nut in the opposite direction until the gas tube is centered in the hole. IMO, if the barrel nut moved it was not tight enough to begin with and needs to be re-torqued. Either that or the buddy has some seriou...

Re: Daniel Defense Omega Rail not aligned slightly...

Looking from the muzzle, which way is the rail off? Loosen the rail screws and see if you can adjust the rail back into position. It could have just spun the rail the amount of slop in the screw holes. If alignment is still off then the barrel nut moved. Remove the rail and tweak the barrel nut in ...

Daniel Defense Omega Rail not aligned slightly...

Long story short I was trying to get my AAC flash hider off of my 16" barrel and was turning the whole upper in the barrel vice. A guy I work with decided to grab it while it was turning and he grabbed the rail (he was standing there watching and I had my back turned). I noticed it twisted the ...
