Do you have a direct link to this kit? I found a broken parts kit and a field parts kit, but neither matched your description.11B3XCIB said:Got a MidwayUSA catalog in the mail; they have an AR repair kit for $35 that includes every spring and pin on the rifle, including a firing pin, new extractor, gas rings, takedown pins, disconnector, the works.

Mods deleted a post in this thread made by a German guy referencing a German hydraulic hammer; an implement for a backhoe or other construction equipment. Thanks for the vote of confidence :cry:
