Pinning my magpul ctr. What size roll pin and drill bit do I need? Thanks!

iv used 1/16 on some but mostly use 1/8

ive used left over roll pin from the trigger guard, if you buy one on top of the lpk. i believe its 1/8th. just make the whole 1/8th too and it will fit right in. dont go all the way through the stock though, i went so the roll pin goes in but cant come out the other side, if that makes sense.

Pick one that is robust enough to do what you want...there is no defined size to the best of my knowledge.

Nick, read your pm...

I've used a 1/16th and broke the pin before from regular usage.  I've since switched to 1/8th.

Before you drill and pin anything, check out page 2 of this thread:

I use this method on my Colt/Rogers stocks and it works great!!

We pin them using different methods for different stocks. You can pin it in a way not to touch the tube.

3/32" for me. No need to go really heavy, because there is no stress on the pin.

fyi

Just pinned mine yesterday using a trigger guard roll pin.

honestly just use which ever one you want. as long as its pinned and doesn't move then you're good to go. i believe i used a 1/8th pin that was 1/2 inch long. i cut it in half and drilled 2 holes so there are 2 pins in my stock just to be sure. i also just pinned the friction lock and not into the buffer tube.
