I'm looking for pictures of an M-16/AR-15 service rifle showing the modification described below:
I don't think this is the same thing as the "tension screws" that push up on the upper's rear lug. It sounds (to me) like a way to screw the lower & upper together rather than using the take-down pin. I have had no luck finding pics of this on the intertubes.
I'm looking for pictures of an M-16/AR-15 service rifle showing the modification described below:
A screw may be inserted in the back radius of the pistol grip where it
joins the lower receiver. This screw
may extend into the rear lock-down
lug of the upper receiver for the purpose of securing the upper and lower
receivers. The screw head may not pr

of the receiver. Both ends of the orig
inal takedown pin must remain in
place so that the original outside
configuration is not changed.
