Excellent Firing Pin

The NibX version looked better than some highly regarded names in the industry who'll I leave unamed. No need to appear to throw shade because the other pins were just fine but this one stood out.

Right size firing pin.

I had trouble with my AR firing after building it from a kit bought elsewhere. After reviewing the the description of the firing pin, I realized the original firing pin was slightly shorter. The new pin solved my problem.

NiB-X firing pin

I purchased this as a replacement for my factory firing pin. Slick coating allows you to easily wipe it clean after heavy use. After getting to see this coating in action, I know I will be purchasing a WMD NiB-X bolt carrier group and hammer in the future.
