    Is there a difference between these AR Bullet Buttons?

    I was looking at PSA's site and noticed the AR bullet buttons are about $13.00

    Huge Selection of AR15 Uppers, AR15 Parts, Ammunition, Handguns, Rifles, Shotguns and Shooting Accessories at Great Low Prices


    A search of Amazon shows a few others at $5 or $6 each. One of them comes with a tool (red thumb tac looking) that I have no idea what it is for.



    Is there a major difference between BBs? if so and none of these are good, what is a good one to get? More concerned with if there is anything to watch for or do they all work the same?

      Only thing to "watch for" is do not leave the red tool threaded into the button unless you are out of state.

        OK this is not going to be much help haha but they are different . I've have bought both and remember something being different but don't remember what . That said they both worked fine .
        Tolerate
        allow the existence, occurrence, or practice of (something that one does not necessarily like or agree with) without interference.

        Anyone else find it sad that those who preach tolerance CAN'T allow the existence, occurrence, or practice of (something that they do not necessarily like or agree with) without interference.

          the red tool is to adjust the bullet button. that's all.
          Been gone too long. It's been 15 to 20 years since i had to shelf my guns. Those early years sucked.
          I really miss the good old Pomona Gun Shows.

            I buy the original Prince50 bullet buttons, figured might as well support the guy who began it all. (Along with all the other risk takers.)

              I bought one off eBay for $8 that was much, much nicer than either of those two. The seller isn't selling them anymore though, wish I could find a new source. The ones you linked have a terrible glossy finish, no grooves on the surface (like a standard mag-release button would have), and are often excessively long. See if you can find one with the finger grooves, they have a much nicer finish and are the correct length. Also, the little castle nut has 4 notches on mine, allowing the tool to get a positive lock on it. Most BB's only have 2 notches in the castle nut, so the aluminum tool keeps slipping off and gets mangled.

              That said, any of them will work.

              Settle down, folks. The new "ghost gun" regulations probably don't do what you think they do.
