Reviews & Ratings for Yankee Hill Machine EZ Pull Takedown Pins Front/Rear Set YHM-7284 — 46 reviews — Page 1

Purchase these for a 300 blackout build. I already have them on a 5.56 rifle. They work great and make splitting the upper and lower a little easier.

These are a "must have" for any AR build! Well worth the money. These pins made it much easier to pull such that the upper can be removed, cleaned, etc. Yankee Hill has the best!

Great feeling pins. Much easier to takedown the receivers.

I have these on all of my lowers, and it is one of the first things I do. No tool necessary, don't have to pull a feeedom seed to push it out, or jammed finger nails. There are some cheaper ones out there, but the others I've tried at just that CHEAP.

These are great if you have tight receivers that make it difficult to pull the pins. These have more area to grab which makes it's much easier to pull the pins. The movement isn't as smooth as I'd like, but it was an easy fix by simply polishing the detent channel a little bit. Overall they work great.

Immediately upon discovering these pins back in... probably 2008-ish... I got a set for my rifle. I was tired of having to use my fingernails to pry the pins away from the lower receiver, and these pins solved my problem.
These pins are worlds better than the regular pins that come in the average lower parts kit. The rear pin can sometimes "confuse" your fingers if you're using an ambidextrous safety, but that can be trained for.
These were my go-to set of takedown pins for over a decade. From discovering them long ago, to just a couple of months ago (as of March 2024), these went on my rifles. I had a pivot pin shear on me, though, when I accidentally dropped my lower and the pin was sticking out to the side. Broke right in two. The metallurgy is average, and they'll be just fine for the average shooter who puts average wear and tear on their equipment, but that's not me. So, I have been using solid stainless pins since then, but these pins are still a really great value. Easily recommended.

I have the YHM extended takedown pins on nearly all my ARs. I wish YHM made a set for the AR 308 lowers!

Pins look clean and are easy easier to pull out than the mil-spec pins.

Perfect for a new build fit and finish are perfect. They do stick out just a little more than I thought but will work just fine.

Larger knobs make it easy takedown the rifle. YHM makes excellent quality.
