So, I'm building an AR, and certainly will NOT need a full lower parts kit. I'll be getting a Seekins Precision SP223 billet lower which already comes with an ambi bolt release installed. Also, I'm getting a Battle Arms Developpment BAD-ASS selector, BAD-EPS (enhanced pin set, a takedown/pivot pin kit basically), BAD-EMR (enhanced magazine release BUTTON ONLY, no spring nor the part that goes on the other side), and I also have my Geissele SSA-E trigger group and Ergo grip.

So I would basically need:

- All springs and detents apart from those for the takedown/pivot pins and selector switch
- Any roll pins that might be needed
- The other metal part for the mag release that the button screws onto

Is it possible to get all of those separately, and if yes, where? It would be useless for me to purchase a full or reduced LPK considering I already have all those high-end parts...springs/detents/roll pins cost next to nothing...the mag release part might cost a few bucks?!

Thanks in advance!!
 
I did the same thing, sourced a lot of quality small parts and didnt want a lot of the other parts contained in basic lpk's like grip, trigger, safety etc.
I lucked out and one of my local gun stores specializes in ar-15 builds and they had all the remaining small parts necessary for a build. Shop around locally, never know what you might find.
 
Geez thanks alot guys! I'm gonna take a look at what Wolverine and Questar might have in stock. As for local stores well...none of them near Montreal QC seem to stock all the parts for complete builds...!
 
Often a lot of individual parts aren't updated on websites so it's worth calling if there is something you are looking for that aren't on their sites.
 
For Springs and detents there is a bushmaster brand lost parts kit includes all detents and springs. Then for smaller parts that you need order from brownells a lpk from there is 60 American
 
Questar does indeed sell RRA parts, but they're 4-5 times as expensive as the DD parts that Wolverine sells!!! The only thing with the latter seller is that they charge 13$ flat rate shipping even though my order is worth 11.40$ and I'm only ordering a buffer retainer & spring, mag catch assembly & spring....! I'll be calling CRAFM in Montreal to see if they can order parts...

CTCS, you have the CMMG AR-15 Lower Pin & Spring Kit at 24.99$ that I could slide in my pending order from Rainier perhaps, but it's out of stock at the moment...unless you could order only the aforementioned parts...
 
If you can't find locally or in Canada. There is always Brownells, they will have EVERYTHING you need in one place. And they have all the AR specific tools as well. Be careful, it is way to easy to end up with a $500 shopping cart!
