I've been reading this forum and watching everything on youtube about building an AR15 and I have an extremely simple question, what does the detent spring do which is under the grip?  Is there something it presses into other than the grip?

This adds spring tension to the detent for the safety selector.  Without it, your safety selector would not stay in your selected position.

Thanks, couldn't tell that the hole went through to something else.

A lot of people skip over the thread at the top on the BIY forum.  When you have several spare hours, check it out.  You'll be enlightened !
