Re: AR accessories - Wants vs Needs
FYI. Anti walk pins are not recommended for standard "Mil Spec" style triggers. They were pretty much invented for the use of cassette triggers, which do not place downward spring pressure onto the pins.
The standard "mil spec" and all other non cassette triggers are designed with pin rotation in mind, and as such limiting it can cause ovaling of the FCG pivot points and / or the actual receiver. In extreme cases it has even been known to create stress fractures and failure of the actual hammer.
There are a few writeups and a fair amount of anecdotal evidence on M4Carbine.

Re: AR accessories - Wants vs Needs
I believe I mentioned accuracy? When I say action sports I'm mainly referring to IPSC, of which I have personally shot out to 300m in matches. I believe when speaking about longer ranges and AR15's we are not generally speaking in the realm of 600m and further, at least not in 5.56
At what is considered usable distance with an AR15, in an IPSC match it will not be a standard trigger holding you back.
I think we have digressed though as we get further away from my original comment on your original post in that I do believe a trigger upgrade does have merit in an AR15, but there is a whole whack of time behind the gun before it should be a consideration, at the end of the day it's the OP's money to do as he likes and if he wants a gun that looks good on the Gram with little time on it... then that's his choice.
