AK Gun Man 88 3 Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 Got a quick question for you 308 owners. On my 308, the pin that holds the bolt limiter on the recoil spring guide is pretty loose. I can center the pin, but as soon as I work the action, the pin wiggles out halfway. It never has come out completely (I think the pin's travel is finally stopped by the dust cover. Just curious if it supposed to be like that? Im getting ready to install TWS dust cover with Blackjack buffer so I wont need to worry about the limiter issue. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mossb 1 Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 Very interested in this also. Just got a used 308 and on the 1st cleaning this pin flew out and is loose. Is this a job for red loctitie on the ends of the pin or something better? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
N4KVE 14 Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 I never had that problem, but I immediately bought an older Bulgarian tube type recoil rod assy, installed the 308 recoil spring, & Buffer Tech buffer. Never had a problem. GARY Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zagumennyyilya 51 Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 I had a similar issue, but I took a hammer and a punch, and smashed the pin so it won't come out, pounded on the pin to make is squeezed and not move in its hole as freely. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
