Ez takedwn pins

Has anyone found EZ takedown pins for the M&P 10?

Why do you want them? Do you intend to take your rifle down a lot? They add extra bulk/hassle. The pins are tight because Smith put small spacers on the bottom of the upper receiver to ensure a tight upper to lower receiver fit (also a non-issue in the AR world, but people obsess about it). An ink pen or a nylon punch is enough to push them out when they're new and tight...a few hundred rounds should help loosen them up.

Why do we want anything? Simply because I can have them.

Depends, maybe

OK Thanks.
Now do you know a source for EZtake down pins?

AR-15/M16/AR-STYLE .308 EXTENDED PIVOT/TAKEDOWN PINS | Brownells

Not sure if these will work specifically for the M&P, but Brownells has a good return policy, so it's worth a shot. You will still have to tug pretty hard on whatever you get because of the way Smith designed the receivers to be so tight.
