Description
Takedown pins seem like a small detail until the factory ones start to wear, get sloppy, or just look out of place next to the rest of your build. Timber Creek Outdoors solved that with the Greyman line, and this steel takedown and pivot pin set is a straightforward upgrade that adds strength and a little personality to your rifle at the same time.
Why Steel Beats Stock on the Greyman Pin Set
Most factory takedown pins are stamped aluminum, which works fine but wears faster and can start to feel loose after a lot of use. Timber Creek machined this Greyman set from solid steel instead, CNC cut for tight tolerances and long-term durability. The heads are oversized and knurled, so pushing them in and out during a field strip is easier on your fingers, even with gloves on or in cold weather.
Forest Green Finish for a Purpose-Built Look
This particular set comes in Timber Creek's Forest colorway, one of the earth-tone finishes in the Greyman lineup. It's a good pick if you're already running Forest Green handguards, safety selectors, or a mag release button and want everything to look intentional instead of mismatched. The finish holds up well to regular handling and doesn't chip or wear off with normal use.
Drop-In Fit for Mil-Spec AR Lowers
Installation is about as simple as it gets. The set is built to be a direct drop-in replacement for any mil-spec AR-platform lower, so there's no fitting or modification needed. Everything required for the swap is included, so you're not left tracking down a spring or detent you didn't know you needed. Once it's in, you'll notice the takedown and pivot pins move smoother and feel more solid than the stock hardware they replace.
Timber Creek backs this pin set with the same lifetime warranty they put behind the rest of their AR parts, which says a lot considering everything is machined in-house at their Oregon shop.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Greyman Takedown Pin Set fit my AR-15?
Yes, this set is machined as a drop-in replacement for standard mil-spec AR-platform lower receivers. As long as your lower is mil-spec, you shouldn't run into any fitment issues. No modification or gunsmithing is needed to get it installed.
What's the benefit of steel pins over the factory aluminum ones?
Steel holds up better to repeated use and resists wear that can eventually cause aluminum pins to feel loose or sloppy. It's a durability upgrade more than anything, since the takedown and pivot pins get used every time you field strip your rifle. The oversized, knurled heads also make them easier to push in and out.
Does this Timber Creek pin set come with the springs and detents?
Yes, everything needed to complete the install is included, so you get the takedown pin, pivot pin, detents, and springs in the box. You won't need to source any extra small parts separately.
Will the Forest Green finish match other Greyman parts?
It should, since Forest is one of the standard earth-tone colors across the Greyman lineup. If you're running other Greyman parts like a handguard, safety selector, or mag release in Forest, this pin set will match up nicely.
