LBE Unlimited Firing Pin for AR-Platform, Silver
$9.99
AR-15 Firing Pin.
- The AR-15 uses a firing pin to strike the primer of a cartridge and ignite it.
- The firing pin is located in the bolt carrier group (BCG).
- It is spring-loaded and moves forward when struck by the hammer.
- Proper functioning depends on correct fit, alignment, and free movement within the bolt.
- Excessive wear, damage, or incorrect parts can cause misfires or unsafe operation.
- The bolt must be in good condition; firing pin performance is affected by overall bolt/BCG condition.
- Many firing pins are held or controlled by a retaining mechanism (commonly a pin or retaining clip) depending on the exact design.
- Light strikes or failure to fire can be caused by worn firing pin tips, weak/incorrect springs, or debris.
- Some AR-15 firing pins are designed to reduce out-of-battery firing risk, but specific designs vary by manufacturer.
- If you're troubleshooting, inspect for carbon buildup, bent/damaged firing pin, worn springs, or incorrect installation.
- Safety note: damaged or malfunctioning firing components should be inspected and replaced by qualified personnel.
