Part fell out!

[Bpregler]

Removed the hand grip captured both springs and the Allen screw. Turned it over to remove the adjustable part of the rear stock and a brass pin fell out of somewhere. Anyone know where it goes?

Thanks

Likely goes in front of the spring that holds the back pin for the upper in place. Been there. Done that.

Just did this lastnight as well. I was scared sh!tless. LOL I figured it out after 5 mins and everything was fine.

There should be two sets of pins and springs. One set for the safety selector, and one set for the rear takedown pin.
