Well tell me if this the epitomy of being cheap...
Tore down my A1 today for its 20K clean and lube and noticed that the new detents where showing some wear on the breach/ball side, not ready to be replaced just yet but wear just the same. Then it hit me, with these beauty's you can pull them out, turn them around and presto you have fresh detents, well not really but close enuff for us cheap bastards. :D

l0l they will spin around slightly so just get a new replacment pack. I got mine from FMA back when they came out.

Yeah I picked up the 10 pack, but I was mostly marveling at the genious of the new design...what an improvement over the old detents...

Yea they are much better. They really dont get bent and stay that way, they will go back to normal. But eventualy they do get "worn down" on the end of the nub.
