Description
Building or refreshing a 223 Rem/556 NATO lower and planning to drop in your own aftermarket trigger? The Spike's Tactical LPK 556 was made for exactly that. Instead of paying for a basic mil-spec trigger you'll toss in the trash anyway, this kit skips the fire control group and gives you every other pin, spring, and detent needed to complete your lower receiver. Tighter tolerances and a cleaner finish than the average bargain kit make assembly go smoother and hold up over the long haul.
What Sets the Spike's LPK 556 Apart
Spike's set out to build the best factory lower parts kit around, and this one runs past standard military specs on fit and finish. The parts arrive in individual, labeled packaging that lines up with each step of the build, which is a small touch that makes a real difference when you're seating detents and don't want springs launching across the shop. It's all genuine Spike's Tactical hardware too, not a rebranded generic kit.
Inside the Spike's Tactical Lower Parts Kit
You get the safety selector with its detent and spring, bolt catch with plunger, roll pin, and spring, magazine catch with the billet catch button and spring, and both the front pivot and rear takedown pins with their springs and detents. Round that out with an aluminum trigger guard with a spring-loaded detent and roll pin, plus the buffer retainer spring and plunger. Spike's tops it off with their own Pro Grip, a 1/4×28 Allen cap screw, and a star lock washer.
Pairing the Spike's LPK 556 With Your Trigger
Since there's no hammer, trigger, disconnector, or their pins and springs included, you're free to run a drop-in or two-stage trigger of your choosing. That makes this kit a smart foundation for a custom build where you already know exactly how you want the trigger to feel. It's lightweight, made in the USA, and backed by Spike's lifetime warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Spike's Tactical LPK 556 come with a trigger?
No, this kit is built without the fire control group. There's no hammer, trigger, disconnector, or their associated pins and springs. That's by design so you can install the aftermarket or two-stage trigger of your choice.
Will this lower parts kit work with any AR-15 lower receiver?
Yes, it's a standard AR-15 lower parts kit intended for 223 Rem and 5.56 NATO builds. It fits mil-spec forged and billet lowers that follow standard dimensions. If your receiver is built to standard AR-15 spec, these parts will drop right in.
What kind of grip is included with the Spike's LPK 556?
The kit comes with Spike's own Pro Grip, an A2-style pistol grip, along with the 1/4×28 Allen cap screw and star lock washer to mount it. If you'd rather run a different grip, you can swap it out and reuse the hardware. Nothing about the kit locks you into the included grip.
How is this different from a standard mil-spec lower parts kit?
Spike's set out to build a better factory kit, so the fit and finish run past standard military specs. The parts also arrive in labeled individual packaging that makes assembly easier and keeps small springs and detents organized. It's genuine Spike's Tactical hardware backed by a lifetime warranty, not a rebranded generic kit.
