Delta 14 AR 15 Takedown Pin Set

The design of AR-15 receiver sets is such that most exhibit some degree of looseness when fit together using typical captured-detent takedown pins. Delta 14 has addressed that issue with a completely different pin design claimed to improve accuracy of the host platform by eliminating such “play.”

Precision machined in the United States from 303 stainless steel, the three-section pins feature angled surfaces that shift radially when their machine screws are tightened. A wide slot in the pins’ screw heads allows for tightening and takedown using a 5.56 NATO cartridge case rim, and the pins’ design eliminates the need for factory detents and springs in the lower.

The Delta 14 AR 15 pins, which are not compatible with AR-10 receivers, come with a lifetime guarantee.

Suggested retail price is $80. For more information, visit delta14chassis.com.
