It's a Head Down AR-15 BCG. They say the bolt is carpenter 158, and batch HPT/MPI. Not the AR Stoner ones that everybody was having problems with. Mine seem to be machined differently than the Stoners. I originally had a Stoner BCG, but took it back after it wore through the finish on the bolt...

I had the local gun shop check it. Said it was good to go. Why do you ask?

Okay. You see that the phosphate is nearly worn through, right? That's not just reflection you're seeing. It's my first AR and I never payed attention to this stuff on other people's rifles.

I recently built my first AR, and after a quick 40 rounds to break the barrel in, I took a look at my bolt and was wondering if this wear is normal? It's got 40 rounds through it and 2-300 hand-cyclings. I just wiped it off a little after shooting it. Thoughts? Any input is much appreciated...

Re: Catastrophic failures in pistols First things first, it's spelled Kahr. second... None of the pistols mentioned are any more prone to catastrophic failure than the others. If you double charge any of 'em, it'll blow. If you are really worried about it, stick with a metal frame because...

Re: Weak hand Double Feed (Sig) On my P239, I can hit the slide catch by sliding my hand up and hitting it with the first index finger joint. I know the P226 is a bit different.. Eh, I don't know. I'd really like to hear what others have to say, though.

Re: Weak hand Double Feed (Sig) Has your Sig jammed? I'm assuming you're right handed... When you say 'weak hand', are you implying that you're only using one hand to clear it, or you're using both? If you're using one hand, I'd snag the slide to the rear on my pants or boot or something...

Re: Why Glock? There isnt really anything too special about 'em. They're just a pretty well- made gun that can be had for a fairly low price from a company that has good quality control. You arent getting the best ergonomics, the best trigger, the lowest bore axis, the highest capacity, the...

Re: Rifle changing zero suddenly Did somebody else handle your rifle and check out your scope adjustments? Had that happen once.

Re: Remington 700 What do you hate? I hate the brazed bolt. No reason it shouldnt be single-piece. I also hate (with extra passion) the fact that the sight rail is not integrated into the receiver as one piece.
