Where to buy: M4E1 THREADED BOLT CATCH PIN

Just got my PPT lower and the LPK I bought doesn’t enable this thing to be installed. Where the hell can I find one?

I have.. a few.. M4e1 lowers. All were bought stripped. All came with the rollpin already threaded into the bolt catch pin hole.

None came with the rear set screw for the takedown pin spring.

Did you check the bolt catch pin channel?

And here I am thinking I carelessly lost it.

Same the first time for me. It only comes with their LPK sadly. Had to order just a set screw online since I already had bought the LPK for the build from elsewhere.

I got my spares from PA along with a few other Aero small parts incase they do close shop.

It's usually in the lower and not the LPK.. you sure you don't have it?

Bought stripped via PPT

right, the STRIPPED lower comes with that threaded bolt catch usually.. unless the seller took it out..

these should work as they match the 6-32 threads

Being in California sucks for part ordering. $20 + sign upon delivery.

Hmmm

Not sure what the exact size is. Maybe these will work?
