    Also where do you source the mag followers? I've looked but so far no luck.
    I don't think they're available yet. They had them for a run in their own mags but they're sold out everywhere. They were going to offer the followers separately and that's what I'm waiting for.

    The front takedown pin the same as a standard AR front pin, uses the spring and detent as well.

    Ahhh okay. Sorry. First time building this. (Slr doesnt use front pin) and SFRC didnt send me the detent when I bought a stripped SA 20.

    edit: okay looks like i might be sending mine to ATRS to build ( thats an option right?) I ####ed up putting on the barrel nut (not enough torque) and i pinned the front sight into the barrel locking the gas tube into place but the barrel nut isnt tight enough and i dont want to risjk breaking the front A-frame gas block/sight removing the barrel pins + lack of appropriate tools.

    FML i feel dumb for attempting this without the right tools. I take back everything I said in another thread.

    What type of nut/handguard are you using? Maybe someone has a crowfoot type wrench so that you can retorque your nut without removing anything.

    Not sure if I'm understanding what you've posted. You need to tighten the barrel nut but it's the kind that the gas tube feeds through?

    Before you panic, try disconnecting the gas tube from the block. If your BCG is fully back (or out of the receiver) you may find you have enough rearward tube travel to be able to remove it without having to fiddle with the gas block.
