I have been building an ar pistol and all I have left to buy is a bcg. I have read that a KAC e3 bolt will not work in a mil spec barrel extension but I have a Rainer ultra match barrel and an extra e3 bolt lying around (don't know why) so I threw it in to see exactly how the e3 bolt fails to work with a mil spec barrel extension. Much to my surprise the e3 bolt slips right in and locks up perfectly. Wtf? I didn't feel any binding or excessive play so I don't get it. I wouldn't have the balls to squeeze the trigger but the e3 bolt DOES fit and lock. Can someone tell me why it won't work? I've done some googling and have just seen people saying it won't work at all and you need an e3 extension. Im not calling anyone out but I am a bit of a KAC fanboy and if I can use an e3 bolt in all my rifles I would.
