This is a great trigger guard that uses three screws rather than a roll pin.
I bought a Magpul trigger guard that used a roll pin and I was afraid to break the little wings on the receiver when installing the roll pin. And then worried about possibly breaking it if I had to remove the trigger guard.
The design of the 2A Armament Trigger Guard is excellent, just the right size (the magpul didn’t fit), it sits flush with receiver and has a bend to make an expanded trigger opening. One piece billet construction with anodized finish and holes to make it lighter. Screws are 1/16th. Love this thing.

thats nice.
alot of folks will prefer that.
i dont worry about breaking the ears because i have the proper roll pin pusher for the trigger guard that will push the pin in instead of having to wail on it with a hammer and punch. I found after deciding i was going to probably build more than a couple of these that it would be worth my while to buy the proper tools to assemble AR’s. I cant tell you how much easier and less headaches these have made my life over the years with my hobby. i highly recommend them. a simple google search can bring up the tools, most are sold in kits, and you wont be disappointed if you decide to delve deeper into the hobby and buy the tools.

you’re welcome. you’ll love that kit. besides the pusher for the roll pin for the trigger guard it comes with the small hammer and two roll pin punches that are for the bolt catch. one is a roll pin starter that holds the roll pin and the other is one that finishes its job. both designed for use with a bench block and drives the pin in without marring your lower.

That’s decent, would’ve served me better than buying a punch set and a small poll pin set.

yeah, its a nice small kit with everything you need to assemble ar lowers in it just about. the only tool missing is the take down pin tool
I install my trigger guards with nitrided button head Allen screws, just tap the guard holes for the correct thread and if you want to remove them it’s easy and no chance of broken receiver ears.
