AR .308 Cal Extended Takedown Pin Set (Tin Coated)

Description

This extended takedown pin set is designed specifically for AR .308 Caliber platforms. The kit includes both front and rear pins, machined from aluminum using CNC processes to ensure precise dimensions and consistent fitment within the upper receiver assembly. The Tin Coated finish provides a durable surface layer, appearing as a warm golden hue in the product imagery, which helps protect the aluminum substrate from corrosion and wear during installation and removal cycles. Weighing just 1 oz, the set adds negligible mass to the firearm while offering extended knobs that protrude further than standard pins. This extension facilitates quicker engagement with a tool or fingers, streamlining the process of separating the upper and lower receivers during field stripping or maintenance. The cylindrical shafts feature two small circular holes along their length, consistent with standard AR-15/.308 takedown pin geometry, allowing for secure retention by the castle nut and buffer tube assembly. These pins are critical for maintaining the structural integrity of the pivot point between the upper and lower receivers. The matte, brushed metallic appearance of the tin coating offers a professional aesthetic that complements various build styles. Installation requires standard armorer’s tools and follows the conventional procedure for AR-15 platform disassembly. This set replaces worn or standard-length pins with extended versions that improve accessibility for users with larger hands or those who prefer enhanced leverage during receiver separation. The components are manufactured in the USA, ensuring adherence to specific dimensional tolerances required for reliable operation in .308 caliber builds. Proper fitment is essential for safe function, and these CNC-machined pins are engineered to meet those requirements without excess play or binding in the receiver lugs.
