308AR Bolt Catch Screw Bolt Catch Pin
Early on at 308ar.com we did a page that referenced the the point that the Armalite AR-10 utilized a BOLT CATCH ROLL PIN same as the Armalite M-15 (AR15) rifle while the DPMS LR-308 308AR and similar rifles utilize a BOLT CATCH SCREW. Well despite that page we still get many questions about this small part. Based on these messages I decided a simple picture might be easier to understand in this day of sort attention spans. While I believe there are a small minority of 308AR manufacturers using BOLT CATCH ROLL PINS just as there is an AR15 manufacturer or two have adopted the BOLT CATCH SCREW feature. This post is meant to make folks aware of the differences.

At this point I cannot definitively state what 308AR rifle manufacturers use the threaded BOLT CATCH SCREW or the BOLT CATCH ROLL PIN. Feel free to contact us and let us know whether your lower utilizes a BOLT CATCH SCREW or BOLT CATCH ROLL PIN

Armalite AR-10B Lower Parts Kit 10LRPK-T
308AR AR-10 Bolt Catch Pin – The bolt catch pin, one of the smallest parts on the 308AR, AR-10 and AR-15 platform weapons is a part that can stop an AR-10 308AR build dead in it’s tracks if you didn’t purchase the correct one or the correct LOWER PARTS KIT for your STRIPPED LOWER RECEIVER. Here’s why. The AR-15 platform uses a roll pin and that’s taken for granted when shooters move up to the AR-10 and 308AR platforms. Unfortunately this is where the topic gets muddy.
Armalite EL0220 AR-10 Bolt Stop Pin
The Armalite AR-10 utilizes a roll pin Armalite part number EL0220 which is the same as their M-15/AR15 rifles. while DPMS LR-308 based weapon utilize a proprietary hybrid pin/screw.
DPMS 308 AR Bolt Catch Screw
This screw is essentially set screw who’s threads have been removed from one end creating a hybrid screw type pin. Now unfortunately though not all DPMS LR-308 based LOWER RECEIVERS utilize the hybrid BOLT CATCH PIN. Some manufacturers utilize the roll pin method identical to the Armalite AR-10.
Now further complicating the mix at least one AR15 manufacturer has begun utilizing the hybrid screw rather than the milspec roll pin used universally on the platform for decades.
