Bullet button

[joe blow]

Need one for my new build...never bought one before. Any one particular brand better/more dependable than others?

Thanks
Joe

found one on amazon :http://www.amazon.com/California-Com...+bullet+button

Careful - some folks around here will get super indignant/irate/touchy/unreasonable/pre-menstrual/nostalgic if you don't buy or recommend the Prince BB. The one that looks exactly the same as the one you found on Amazon, but costs 5x more and practically speaking is a pain in the arse to find and actually buy because they seemingly have 5 layers of middle men between you and the mfg, and they don't want to sell to you directly. So keep your head down, just sayin'...

And so I don't get accused of NOT pointing you to the 'real, original piece of metal' - here you go: http://bulletbutton.com/

+1 I run all my ARs with the original bullet button, you can get them for $10 from Midway. I just think its cool to have the "real original BB".

There's no reason not to buy a BB from the guy who originated the concept... not to mention they aren't "5x more expensive" or difficult to find.

$10.95 from Midwayusa, instead of $8.95 from whoknows dude at amazon that you're giving your information to.

$15 with shipping, big deal...

there is always some cheap thing on midway that will make your order ship for free or close to it (if you are getting something big they might add a little shipping on). right now i think it's a plastic tactical knife for 3 bucks, and another thing or two.

i got the midway one with the little red wrench it helps instal it


but on this little mega cheap 22 build i did this works fine

For out of state use, the reversible bullet button on eBay is neat, and is just as effective as the raddlock. The regular bullet button and a mag magnet is a good option too. I like the mag magnet because you just drop it in, no tools required - but it could fall off just as easy. The reversible/raddlock style doesnt work with the mag magnet, though there may be similar options for it.

Much appreciated. I too have the mag magnet for my other rifle and frankly it is awesome! The magnet is strong

I didn't think the BB topic was such a controversial subject around here
