My A2 hood has been a rattling sub of a gun, and I have checked the two hinges, finding they are truly sloppy. Even a gate hinge would be embarrassed to be related to these two.
Can these butt hinges be re-habilitated, or is there a source for these? They are apparently NSN-standard:

Re: Hood Hinge Repair
I just pulled some out of storage that I will be selling but I know you are a stickler for perfection so I suggest you check out these new ones from Rapco.
