Mfr. No.: HF-601

697566711077 PF-040 (Pins, Forward Controls, 0.040) is a set of elegantly simple, and superbly crafted AR15/M16 pivot and take down pins. Machined from 17-4 PH SS bar stock and QPQ finished, these pins are 0.040 longer than TDP spec pivot and take down pins. PF-040 pins can be aptly described as "reverse extended", in that they're longer on the left side of the receiver, the additional length of the take down pin doesn't interfere with ambidextrous safety operation. When PF-040 pins are pushed in from the left side, the +0.040 transforms to extra length and grasping area on the right side pin head, which combined with their silky smoothness, makes pulling the pin a cinch. PF-040 has the same elegant and unadorned pin heads design that is in line with our design philosophy which prioritizes functionality over aesthetics. PF-040 right side pin heads (when installed on a receiver, with the muzzle pointing away) are flat, with a small 45 degree chamfer. There is a small dimple on the left pin head, and the tip of bullets (up to 9mm) can be used to push the pins in on tight fitting receivers. AR-15/M16 17-4 QPQ treated pivot and take down pin 0.040 extra length NOTE: PF-040 may not work "PDW" stocks that have bars overlapping the take down pin holes.

Description:

Upgrade your AR-15 with precision-engineered take down pins!

The PF-040 (Pins, Forward Controls, 0.040) is a set of elegantly simple, and superbly crafted AR15/M16 pivot and take down pins. Machined from 17-4 PH SS bar stock and QPQ finished, these pins are 0.040 inches longer than TDP spec pivot and take down pins.

PF-040 pins can be aptly described as "reverse extended," as they feature additional length on the left side of the receiver. This extra length of the take down pin does not interfere with ambidextrous safety operation. When PF-040 pins are pushed in from the left side, the +0.040 transforms to extra length and grasping area on the right side pin head, which, combined with their silky smoothness, makes pulling the pin a cinch.

Designed with functionality in mind, PF-040 has the same elegant and unadorned pin heads that align with our design philosophy. The right side pin heads (when installed on a receiver with the muzzle pointing away) are flat, featuring a small 45-degree chamfer. A small dimple is present on the left pin head, allowing the tip of bullets (up to 9mm) to be used for pushing the pins in on tight fitting receivers.

  • AR-15/M16 17-4 QPQ treated pivot and take down pin
  • 0.040 extra length

NOTE: PF-040 may not work with "PDW" stocks that have bars overlapping the take down pin holes.



Top takeaways

  1. The PF-040 takedown pins are machined from 17-4 PH stainless steel, QPQ finished, and are 0.040 inches longer than standard pins, providing extra length for easier removal.
  2. Designed with a minimalist approach, the pins feature a flat right side head with a chamfer and a dimpled left side head, allowing the use of bullet tips for installation on tight receivers.
  3. These pins are specifically made for AR-15/M16 platforms but may not be compatible with "PDW" stocks that overlap the takedown pin holes.
