Locking bushing

2 posts in this topic

Comparing 2 locking bushings..

one is from my very early JSAR, the other (not barreled) has markings on the face, and the lugs are more slant inwards.. I would like to know why this difference, or is it a worn-out bushing..?

Obviously the one on the left is newer. It still exhibits the circular machining marks and fairly crisp stampings. The barreled one on the right is used but most likely not really worn out. It's just been around and used for years. If it's not giving any problems with lock up, I'd just keep using it. I've seen one which was a LOT worse and still in service.

If you replace the one on the right, you can send me the one old one. I can always use another.
