but they seem to have changed the contents. now they do not include the buffer retaining pin and spring and the trigger guard and roll pin. anyone know when that started? seems odd not to have them in there.

Seems to me like you snagged a LPK that is missing a few parts.
 
Re: i snagged a DPMS lower parts kit

my bad. i noticed that the parts listing was different and the diagram doesnt show the parts i mentioned, but they are actually in the bag.
 
Re: i snagged a DPMS lower parts kit

I bought one <3 months ago and it contained ALL of the parts you indicate you are missing. I know that DPMS makes various LPKs with trigger upgrades (and no hammers/triggers), as well as variations, but I've never seen on without the buffer retainer pin and spring.

See here for their description of their basic LPK contents:

ETA: Ooops. Looks like I was typing when you located the parts. Nevermind! Good luck with your lower assembly.
