Cmmg Ar15 Receiver Pivot/Td Detent
The CMMG AR-15 Receiver Pivot/Takedown Detent is a small but critical component for anyone building or maintaining an AR-15. This detent spring keeps your pivot and takedown pins exactly where they need to be during assembly and disassembly—no more fumbling with loose pins or watching them roll across the bench. If you're doing your own AR work, whether you're a first-time builder or a seasoned gunsmith, this OEM-quality part ensures smooth, reliable operation every time you field-strip your rifle.
CMMG has been manufacturing AR-platform rifles and components since 2002, and they understand what works in the real world. This detent is engineered to fit AR-15 receivers and handle the repetitive cycles of takedown and reassembly without wear or failure. It's the kind of unglamorous part that makes the difference between a frustrating build and one that goes together cleanly.
Whether you're assembling a complete AR-15 from a receiver kit, replacing a worn component, or stocking up on spares, this detent belongs in your parts bin. Keep a few on hand—they're easy to misplace, and having backups means you'll never be stuck mid-build.
