Details:

When you’re working on a .308 AR build, takedown pins might not be the first thing on your upgrade list—but they’re one of those parts you’ll appreciate every time you clean or break down your rifle. The Ascend AR-10 Enhanced Takedown Pins make that process faster, easier, and more frustration-free.

Built for Real Use

These takedown pins are machined from 303 stainless steel, so they’ve got the strength to hold up over time. The black nitride finish gives them solid corrosion resistance while keeping the look clean and low-key, just like the rest of your rifle.

Easier to Grab, Easier to Work With

What really sets these apart are the little design touches that make a difference. The extended length and grooved heads give your fingers something to hold onto—so no more hunting for tools or poking at stubborn pins. The dimpled ends add a bit of grip, especially useful when you’re working in the field or with gloves on.

Fits Right and Stays Light

They’re designed to fit DPMS-pattern Gen 1 AR-10 receivers and include the detents and springs you need. At only 0.6 ounces total, they won’t add bulk, but you’ll definitely notice the upgrade the next time you do maintenance.

If you’re building or tuning up a .308 AR, these takedown pins from Ascend are one of those simple, effective upgrades that make the whole rifle feel more refined and easier to manage.
