A sprung pin assembly for assembly and disassembly of a firearm, comprising:
- a pin housing main body;
- spring loaded pins;
- and
- paddles;
- the pin housing main body having pin holes for inserting spring loaded pins, dowel pin holes for attaching the paddles and a buffer hole to accommodate a buffer tube,
- an upper half and a lower half of the firearm is secured in a releasable pivotal assembly by the spring loaded pins and the spring loaded pins are locked in the assembly by set screws, the spring loaded pins are concentric to holes in the upper half and the lower half of the firearm, an inserting end of the pins are angled cut to allow the upper half to be pressed down while in face-to-face engagement to the lower half of the firearm, and simultaneously the upper half pushes the spring loaded pins that are inserted into the lower half, thereby allowing the upper half to come to rest on the lower half of the firearm, and
- the paddles push the spring loaded pins outwardly from the pin housing main body when pressure is applied to the paddles;
- the paddles are secured to the pin housing main body and manually operated in assembly and disassembly of the firearm.

- a pin housing main body;
- spring loaded pins;
- and
- paddles;
- wherein a upper half and a lower half of the firearm is secured in a releasable pivotal assembly by the spring loaded pins and the spring loaded pins are locked in the assembly by set screws,
- wherein the spring loaded pins are moved in and out of the pin holes on the pin housing main body the by applying pressure on the paddles, and
- wherein the paddles push the spring loaded pins outwardly from the pin housing main body when pressure is applied to the paddles, the paddles are secured to the pin housing main body and manually operated in assembly and disassembly of the firearm.

- a pin housing main body;
- spring loaded pins;
- and
- paddles;
- the pin housing main body consist of first arrangement having a left pin hole and a right pin hole for inserting a first spring loaded pin in the left pin hole and a second spring loaded pin in the right pin hole, and a second arrangement having a left dowel pin hole and a right dowel pin hole for attaching first paddle in the left dowel pin hole and second paddle in the right dowel pin hole by dowel pins, and a buffer hole to accommodate a buffer tube, the buffer hole is common to both the upper half and lower half of the fire arm, and disposed at least partially within an opening,
- the spring loaded pins consist of pin and spring, wherein the spring loaded pins are inserted into the pin housing main body for securing the upper half and the lower half of the firearm,
- wherein the upper half and the lower half of the firearm is secured in a releasable pivotal assembly by the spring loaded pins and the spring loaded pins are locked in the assembly by set screws,
- wherein the spring loaded pins are moved in and out of the pin holes on the pin housing main body by applying pressure on the paddles,
- wherein the paddles push the spring loaded pins away from the assembly when pressure is applied to the paddles, the paddles are secured to the pin housing main body and manually operated in assembly and disassembly of the firearm.
