The Cross Armory Pin Pal (brand part number CRPP308) replaces the forward pivot pin on a 308 Win/7.62x51mm NATO AR-10 with a more durable system built to stop the undue wear that loosens the takedown pin over time. The kit includes a front takedown pin replacement with a locking nut machined from 4140 Ordnance Steel for extreme durability, paired with a lubricated captive bearing that press-fits into place without special tools. Because it’s a press-fit design, it won’t permanently alter your rifle and is easily removed if you ever want to return to the factory configuration. Finished in black melonite hard coat, this model uses a brass alloy bearing and installs on virtually any standard AR-10 configuration. It is not compatible with the Smith & Wesson M&P 10.
