    Installing new pin in Spikes Bolt Kit

    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
    B.

    I think there's a thread at Ar15 forums, under the spike's tactical industry forum. There maybe a detailed step by step sticky on how to do this. I'm assuming it's for your dedicated .22 lr upper?

      Yup, dedicated.
      I'll pop over and take a look. Thanks!
      I'm probably fretting over nothing, it seems pretty straight forward.
