Thanks fellas. My buddy had a spare detent, so I'm good to go.

Turns out most places don't sell small parts like detents and pins by themselves, you gotta buy the entire LPK. Always good to have spare parts anyways, so I'll be ordering a couple.

Yeah, I went in to my local weapons shop to just buy a spare mag release and they said they don't/can't sell those by themselves so I had to spend $80+ on an kit with spare parts I don't even use....

but I guess it's good to have for the future..right? =]

I don't even need one but I went ahead and ordered a few from my friend who makes them, or rather a company that makes them... They charge a lot though, only reason I get it from him is due to the 50% discount which is actually like a 30% discount.


How much do you guys usually pay for each detent/pin? I mean, its such a simple and small part, it should cost like 10 cents, seriously.
