.308 bolt carrier

[8up]

A few weeks ago if I remember correctly, there was a post with pic's on a new style bolt carrier. It used the standard cotter pin for the firing pin retainer. Anyone out there tell me who was the manufacture or post the link to the thead.

I believe it is the same one in the GAP 10.

The one you're looking for is Young Manufacturing. I contacted them about two weeks ago and they said they have them but they're going fast as the word gets out. Carrier only, they're still working on bolts.

Can anyone confirm that GAP uses Young bolt carriers?

Re: .308 bolt carrier

what is the benefit to a chrome bolt carrier? I have always wondered why? I have a new upper being built and my smith is going to order a dpms bolt to head space, if this has a benefit, I will order this.
thanks

Only advantages I see to chrome carriers is clean up is visual perspective being able to see the points needing cleaned easier and the silver just looks good.

I did a little more research, my GAP 10 has a Armalite BCG

Chrome has a much better Coefficient of Friction than MagPhos- and also does not retain carbon and gun up like MagPhosphated carriers.

Thanks!

I primarily run chromed bolt carriers because they will wipe clean without solvent if you oil them regularly. I don't think they offer any kind of functional or accuracy improvements, but they sure make cleaning less of a pain in the ass.
