Have a loose fit between your upper and lower on your Modern Sporting Rifle? This tension screw can take the annoying wobble out of your AR type rifle and give you a more solid platform. The nylon tipped tension screw allows the shooter to fine tune the upper and lower fit of their AR15 and AR10 style rifles. This tension screw will only work on lowers that have been drilled and tapped for a tension screw to be added. To find out if your lower has the hole, simply push out the rear takedown pin and inspect the lower for the hole (see photos). DOES NOT FIT SAVAGE ARMS AR LOWERS If you have a Savage lower, click HERE for the correct screw.

Installation Instructions RESTRICTIONS
 

1. Remove the grip screw and lock washer from the grip of your rifle. Remove the grip. Mind the spring and detent for the safety as they may bounce out as you remove the grip completely.

2. Using a 1/8" Hex wrench, screw in the tension screw from the hole exposed by removing the grip.

3. With the upper and lower installed, place enough tension on the screw to allow for a snug fit between the upper and lower. Too much tension may cause the upper and lower to be too tight making it difficult to push the rear detent pin.

5 of 5 Unbeatable March 18, 2025
Reviewer: Doug Hockenberry Jr from Millerstown, PA United States  
I was surfing the net looking for a tension screw for a build I was doing, found a few from other places and stumbled upon Taylor and was shocked at his price compared to everyone else. Most places were over 20 bucks for the screw but not here. I was extremely happy with price and quality. Shipping was fast and I'll definitely be buying from here again.
