    why does magpul...

    ...not include a freaking allen wrench with their Enh. Trigger Guard~! Just got an order of part for my lower and discovered that i don't have an allen key small enough for the magpul trigger guard. that means I have to wait till tomorrow morning to go to sears.

    Just venting guys...

    I know all of you understand what its like when you have something you're just dying to finish and you can't for watever reason.

      I'm thinking you might have to turn in your man card for not having a complete set of allen wrenches in the first place!

        I got one with my trigger guard. It however did not work well and I used a set of needle nose pliers to screw it in.

              I cringed when I read this. Do you also use a kitchen knife as a screwdriver

                No kitchen knife, but the pliers did work very well and the end result is the same.

                            I really hate parts/accessories that come with common tools such as allen wrenches.

                            What I mean is common/standard tools. They made my tool bin stuffed with a lot of identical common tools. However, they are part of what I paid for, it's ashamed to threw them away.

                            For some special cases, such as the barrel wrench of VIS upper, some tools are necessary. But for regular allen wrenches, just give me a break!!!

                            Nex time there might be somebody complaining that "Why LPKs do not come with roll pin punches?"
