Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Bad to fire without bolt catch?
Posted: 7/12/2003 11:40:20 AM EDT
I have a lower put together but not with a bolt catch installed. Would it be dangerous to test fire the rifle a few times without the bolt catch installed?

Not in the least.

Since you won’t have the Hold Open, you just have to treat it with the respect and caution due any firearm…

Totally unsafe, your gun is junk.  Send it to me for proper disposal, you pay shipping. [:D]

nah, it should be ok.
