I just bought a Colt AR-15 A4 and am wanting to replace the grip. I removed it today and noticed a small spring in the grip that extended a little way up into the gun. I was wondering if it is necessary to get a a grip with a hole for the spring, or would it be ok to replace it without it? Took a pic, but can't figure out how to insert..Any thoughts or comments are appreciated.

Most if all grips I have seen have the hole. The spring is in there for the safty and there is also a detent in the hole you dont want to lose. My advice is to youtube things in the future so you have a visual unless you know someone who has experience. Its all easy stuff I just dont want you to lose or install something wrong.
Do you have a grip with no hole? Maybe I am wrong and they make one. |
