Hi...question is, if your bolt breaks, is it a simple replacement, or do you have to deal with headspacing? Seems like headspacing would be required...don't know enough about that to be smart, but seems like broken bolt means a trip to smith/armorer, right? v/r Walt K Apologize if this post is in wrong section; 7.62x39 discussion made me curious. |
| You just replace the bolt but should check head space to make sure its still good with the new bolt. End user can't change the headspace on ARs. 99.% head space is OK but it is still recommended to check anytime you replace the bolt. In the rare event it doesn't headspace correctly try another bolt. If you can;t get it to work then a new barrel is needed. |
