I have searched and have read so much that I am even more confused.
Some like this one, and some had that one fail.
Am I correct in my thinking that alot of the newer 7.62 x 39 bolts have come along way in the last few years?
So, as long as the bolt is made out of 9130 steel, and is either "enhanced" so more standard firing pin protrudes.....or you buy a slightly longer "Enhanced" firing pin........you should be good to go, or not.
Many of the better priced ones out there still have the 9310 steel, so I can't decide if I should just roll with one of them, or spend what I would on the complete bolt carrier assembly and get a Liberty gun works one (Stainless steel) for $150 or a Cason Emgineering bolt........I don't want to buy twice, but I also don't want to over spend if I don't have to.
I will be using an adjustable gas block. so maybe that will help a bit on broken lugs,
Please don't say "Get an LMT and be done with it"....because what I can tell from all the reading is that they no longer make them.
I am leaning towards these, not in any order.....although the Rubber City seems best for some reason.
1. Rubber City Armory
2. Sota Arms
3. Red X arms
4. MAS Defence
5. Ambush Tactical
I would be getting complete bolt carrier assemblies.
Am I right based on the 9130 steel or are there many other variables that make a "better" 7.62 x 39 bolt?
