Quick question for the knowledgeable here.
After roughly 13,000 rounds the firing pin in my Spikes AR gave up the ghost.
Yup, it gets used A LOT.
Anyway, I got the pieces of the pin out, all was well, my new one arrived today.
Unfortunately it was in pieces when it came out so I'm not 100% on putting a replacement back in.
So my guess is:
Spring over the pin.
Slide in and keep depressed with tape/rubberband
Make sure I can see light through the slot were the roll pin goes in.
Carefully tap roll pin in
Check to make sure firing pin doesn't come flying out because I screwed it up
And back to business.
Correct? Advice?
Thanks
