AR-15 Spare Parts
What spare parts are good to have on hand for an AR-15? Parts that wear down or break and might need to be replaced? Thanks.

Bolt cam pins, firing pin retainers, extractors, extractor springs, extractor retaining pins, ejector and spring, detents and springs, magazines. Everything else on an AR is pretty much bulletproof.

Find a spare complete bolt set, all short of the carrier. Should get you through any emergency.

Don't worry, if you build enough of them you'll end up with more spare parts than you'll know what to do with (which always leads to yet another build).
