    Makes sense. For every 100 people that complain about a product, only one will go out of his way to tell others of a positive experience

    Took the extractor off, the bolt only comes with an extractor spring and rubber o-ring. No black insert.

    Mine has worked flawlessly for around 7,000 rounds. Still looks brand new. Only thing is every now and then it won't lock back on the last round - but that's only with cheap Wolf or Tula steel cased stuff. Doesn't stain like nickel boron does. Cleans off with a paper towel.

    I encountered failures to feed and failures to lock back using wolf steel case as the gun got hot and dirty. Might be a case of weak ammo + new gas rings on a heavily buffered carbine. Hopefully this will stop as the gas rings break in.

    I am still on my first one. Somewhere around 2500ish rounds from a 10.5 barrel. Mostly steel junk but some 5.56 brass ammo too. I now have a second one I am looking at putting in another 10.5 upper.

    Im still having lock back issues with almost 400 rnds through the bolt, with both aluminium and pmags. Will give it another range outing with a lighter buffer. After that I might just go back to my BCM bolt.

    Did you try new gas rings?

    No because they should be worn in by now. There is noticeably less resistance when closing the bolt.
