Ouch! Please nobody tell my CO, that in my 25 years in the Corps, I can't put together a bolt
No worries! I think the common observation is very tight gas rings, which I acknowledged and others have verified. My observation was that my extractor does not look like all others I have seen; as the image clearly shows the spring end of the extractor is not flush with the rest of the bolt. Anything to worry about? Uncertain. Should everyone be aware? definitely!
