Our Enhanced Firing Pin is designed to work in any AR-15 bolt carrier group to increase reliability in igniting tough Soviet primers. By extending further out of the bolt face, our Enhanced Firing Pin is able to ignite deeply set and hard primers commonly found in most steel cased ammo such as 7.62x39, 5.45x39, as well as steel cased .223 Rem, 6.5 Grendel, etc. Made to the same strict tolerances and with the same materials as Mil-Spec firing pins, our Enhanced Firing Pins are guaranteed to give you a lifetime of reliable and trouble free use!
Mil-Spec AR-15/M16 Firing Pin Protrusion:
.028" - .036"
Bexar Arms 7.62x39 AR-15 Firing Pin Protrusion:
.040" - .050"
Drop in "cassette" style of trigger are not recommended for 7.62x39 AR builds due to the higher chance that their hammer springs are weaker than Mil-Spec style triggers. This may lead to light primer strikes even if used with our Enhanced Firing Pin.
A note from Phillip: In some cases, an Extra Power Hammer Spring may be also be necessary along with this firing pin for reliable primer ignition. We recommend trying the firing pin by itself first before deciding if you need to buy an extra power hammer spring or not. Shooting corrosive ammunition? Consider using one of our Black Nitride gas tubes for increased corrosion resistance and durability!

Well made, excellent upgrade
Ordered this upgraded firing pin for my 7.62x39 AR and got it in a few days. Seems to be well made and it eliminated the common light primer strikes associated with using steel case ammo. Definitely recommend and the hand written note on the invoice was an added touch.

Enhanced Firing Pin
I recently purchased this enhanced firing pin for my AR-47 build. I previously had issues with my stock firing pin. After some research, I found Bexar Arms. I received my purchase within days, even during the bad snow storm in Texas, during the time of ordering. After installing the enhanced firing pin, I ran 140 rounds through my rifle , without a miss-fire. Most importantly, the personal hand written note on my invoice, thanking me for my purchase! That's Excellent Customer Service!!!
