Milspec Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 I don’t think that the orientation really matters as it appears the spring will capture the Axil pin regardless of its position. Looking at the parts diagram it’s really hard to tell which way it’s really suppose to go. It appears that it should be in the format of a capital letter G. Unlike what is shown in the attached photo. Does anyone know with certainty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerDanger Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 It doesn’t matter. However I set mine so the spring leg thru the middle is horizontal. It’s possible that the spring will walk around overtime.This is light switch screw orientation level stuff. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

remarkable Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Your photo supports the orientation of the Axel Pin on all NEW M4's. I have had several of these missing on brand new guns. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
