If I wanted to replace the bolt carrier in my Sig 516...
I know the 516 isn't a favorite around here, but I got the thing for a good price ($1,000) complete with several Pmags and barely fired.
That said...it has the original bolt carrier that Sig got sued over, the LWRC...if I wanted a spare, where could I find one and what is the model number or type associated with it.
I've searched for this info....data overload...too much info, some probably right and some probably wrong.
I just want a straight answer.

My guess is that if you truly need a carrier, you will need to get it from Sig.
No...no sign of imminent failure....just thought it'd be good to have a spare.
Sig doesn't seem to want to sell parts...and I don't need a complete upper.

Hell no I ain't selling it...I'll run it until breaks.
