Fulton .308 lwoer problem

[veeklog]

Now, I have been building AR's for a year now, and I enjoy it highly. However, in my latest build I committed one of the dumbest things and bonehead mistakes known to man.

I recently bough a Fulton .308 stripped lower, which is identical as the DPMS .308. I was almost done with the lower, when I was ready to install the front pivit pin. Unfortately, I put in the detent before I put in the front pivot spring, and now the denten is stuck deep inside of the front pivot well. The hole is about 1/16 in width, and it is extreamely difficult to get any tools inside. Is there a way of removing the pivot detent without sending it to Fulton and ruining the lower? If not, maybe someone can recommend a good AR gunsmith. I live in San Diego, and money is not a problem.

Thanks

Try putting a towel on the table and lightly "tap" the front of the lower on the table. I'll bet a couple good whacks and it will fall right out.

Or, super glue on the tip of a toothpick/paper clip... but if you get that hung up on the lower, you'll have a piece of wood or paper clip affixed to your lower... lol....
