I'm sure there's one available for the AR but I can't seem to find it. It's been a long time since I've had the bolt torn down - having an extraction problem and want to install the 'O' ring remedy. I had sent the unit to an AR 'specialist' a year ago and I'll never do that again; when I attempted to tear down the bolt I found that the gas tube thingy (sorry 'bout that) allen screws had been peened and red Lok-Tited in place. I need to get an easy out to remove the last one. On eo other thing, if I want to replace the extractor spring, who carries those. I used ADCO (I believe, offhand) for the Vitron 'O' rings. TIA, Chiz (lurker - too ignorant to be much of a poster) |

www.ar15.com/content/manuals/TM9-1005-319-23.pdf Chapter 2-13 has every thing you need to know about the bolt and carrier. It's a PDF filw so you might want to save a copy on your harddrive. |

Thanks for the posts back. I'll get it sorted out with the pdf. I tried a couple of others but with a dialup connection out here in the boonies the download time requires me to shave twice. I literally slapped this thing together from a parts kit just six months before the '94 AWB. It has never worked well for that reason and for that reason I sent it to a smith with terrible results. This was just one of the issues that was either skipped or done incorrectly. So, between the frustration and the exasperation (and the money wasted) I decided that it's time to get my act together. Again, thanks, Chiz |
