IN STOCK SixFive Bolt Carriers

[BluntForceTrauma]

Thanks! Interesting idea. Would this be compatible with some non-standard uppers, like the VLTOR MUR and probably a few billet types, which have the FA mounted a little farther forward (for some reason) than standard?

Engineered for standard uppers. Don't know about non-standards. But having studied the issue I'm gonna say they're probably compatible, cuz, again, there is no malfunction that starts with the bolt basically wide open and is then fixed by mashing the FA.

The FA comes into play with a clean chamber and a slightly sticky round needing to go that last inch, at the most — like Kyle Rittenhouse found out. You don't want to use the FA to wedge stubborn rounds into the chamber; that creates more problems than it solves; better to have pulled back the charger to eject that round and cycle a fresh one or check for chamber obstructions.

Other than that, a hunter or a tactical guy might want to quietly verify a round is chambered by pulling back the charging handle a half inch until he "sees brass" and then slowly riding it home again, and using the FA if it doesn't seat by itself. In the case of Rittenhouse and a chamber check, without an FA one uses his thumb in the ejection port to seat the carrier that last inch. There is no malfunction an FA solves that a thumb can't just as easily solve. Any malfunction a thumb can't solve, an FA can't solve.

At any rate, I understand both sides of the debate, and I sell Aero Precision assembled uppers both with and without the FA. And nobody beats my "Prices Too Low to Show."
