accidentally dry dired (dropped hammer) with upper removed...

[Vancouvergunnut]

Hey guys, I know this is a definite thing you SHOULDNT do with ARs, but today I had my upper removed and I accidentally pulled the trigger on the lower by itself, which released the hammer slapping against the bolt catch. There is no visible damage from what I can see, and I function tested it a few times and it fires fine... Do you guys think I have anything to be worried about??

Thanks

Nope.

Just dont make it a habit as you already know.

Yeah don't worry to much man. It should be fine. Been there done that. Just have to be careful.

Or see it start to happen and try to stop it with a thumb like a buddy did: finger nail fell off after a couple of days...

Dont worry about it... if there were damage it would be obvious.

Holy crap. That thing is TOAST for sure. I better take it off your hands for safe disposal. I'll only charge you a small fee.

Your lower is fine, but you'll have to hold on to your #### indefinitley to keep it from falling off.

Your AR is fine.
If the C7's made in the 80's still go bang after 1000's of recruits who never touched a rifle before abused the hell out of them; yours should be fine after one accident of letting the hammer drop.

Well my AR is a just ##### extension anyways, so as long as its ok im sure my #### will be as well.

Consensus around here is that you must own at least two M14’s for your #### to be safe…
