WTB takedown spring

So when installing my new magpul ASAP the takedown spring became slightly mangled and twisted. It pulled apart and is so tiny I dont think it can be fixed. Does anyone have an extra? I wanted to check here before I placed an order on Del-Ton or another site and paid 5 bucks for shipping on a .25 cent spring. Any help would be appreciated.

I checked and no luck. You can always buy more goodies until you qualify for free shipping.

Get a spare lower parts kit and if you are shooting a lot, spare bolt, cam pin, firing pin, FP retaining pin, extractor and extractor springs, as well as anything else you tend to lose on a regular basis.

Cheap insurance.
