imschur Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 I received mine today and will post pictures tomorrow. Pretty fast service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 They mail it to you via USPS? I'm going to get a couple to replace mine, just because, but I'm not paying $12 UPS to get $12 in parts. My DPMS screw isn't broken, but I'm not going to wait for it to break, either... Big fat POS... :(On a side note, have any of you guys seen the recent posts (on other boards) of the "people" that got a custom AR-15 lower built? They're praising the "genious" of the lower manufacturer for using the same damn bolt catch screw on their 15 lower - like the guy invented it or something. It's annoying, to say the least... >:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
survivalshop Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 I still have not received mine . They said they would be in the mail this past Monday . Its what's keeping me from doing a range report on my rifle with the 16" bbl..It may come today ,ya never know . They wanted $ 14+ some change to ship it & I emailed them to see if they could just stuff them small items in an envelope , they said they would .

98Z5V Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 Awesome, man - I know they're good people. I was just checking on the shipping online from them, nothing more, and I had to add the item to my cart and start checkout. The only shipping options they had in the dropdown shipping menu was UPS, which I completely understand. I'm a firm believer that it's always better to call a company on the phone and talk to a human, so I figured they'd do that (USPS) for a customer, considering it's such a small item. <thumbsup> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

survivalshop Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 Got both of mine today & a refund of $ 13.73. I must say I was expecting a little bit better job on the pin area , but the one I used is working & seems better going in . I used some Graphite grease on the screw threads. I noticed there seemed to be a high & low spot I think on the threads in the lower receiver ,because the DPMS one had the same feeling of tighten & then normal screw advance. I will be going to the range Monday morning , do some target work . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjsemtex Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 so, this is the same threads / dimensions as the DPMS bolt catch screw?but, not prone to disintegration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
