Overview
Designed for shooters using a compatible California magazine lock setup, this rear takedown pin is built to support quick magazine changes while keeping the rifle within the intended compliance configuration. It replaces the factory pin and offers two operating modes: reload mode for magazine changes and takedown mode for separating the upper and lower. The pin is captured so it stays in place during use, and it limits how far the upper can open when partially pulled. This is a specialized accessory for a specific setup, so it is best suited to users who already have the matching BAD magazine lock system.
