I have replaced the Pivot and Take Down pins on my Colt AR15 with some Yankee Hill pins from Brownell. I am really liking these pins. So much easier to just pull these out with my fat fingers. $17.20 from Brownell's (I hate mentioning RDA competitors), they are really good for parts customizing. What are some of the best upgrades you guys have done to your AR's? Sometimes it is the smallest of things that make all the difference!

I just picked up a new handguard. It just arrived today. I have not installed it yet.

I am replacing a 6 inch quad rail. I want to be able to extend my reach past the front site, and I want to keep the standard front site. I like the cleaner lines as opposed to a full quad rail, and you can add rails if you want.

It's a Troy Delta VTAC.

Thought about changing mine out but other projects have detoured me away from my tinkering. I would like to know how you like them over time. There are always things that I look to acquire but later i am glad I did not buy.

Oo good to know. I like to keep these threads in mind when I start getting back into my build. Speaking of.. I need to quit talking about it and get it going...

Dutz let me know how you like that hand guard!
