Gator Monroe Posted March 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 Did ArmaLite make Non Serrated AR10 Bolt Carrier in past for Rifles without Bolt Forward assist ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
survivalshop Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 As long as you use a AR 10 Bolt with the AR 10 Barrel Extension , it should work . There are slight dimensional differences with the Barrel Extensions/Bolts, so the common thought is to match Bolts to there Barrel Extensions . Now what you use for a Receiver Extension & the Buffer System , Keep that AR 10 or LR DPMS . The Armalite pushers here should have better info .

Gator Monroe Posted March 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 I really want a non serrated carrier that is ArmaLite pattern to go with ArmaLite Bolt /Receiver Extension/Barrel Nut/Rifle Stock &Buffer if one can be found & purchased ...

jtallen83 Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 There are a couple tips in this thread from 2013, might take you some time for the carrier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rsquared Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 They did used to make the non-serrated carriers. I've got one on my A2 carbine. As others have said, they'll be harder to find, since they started putting the FA on everything and not just the SASS or 10T models. I would just go with the serrated one that you can get fairly easy off of Armalites' website (or other sites). It won't affect function. As far as mix and matching carriers to bolts. In theory you can run an Armalite bolt in a DPMS carrier. But I wouldn't bother. And why would you put a Chevy part in a Ford? Just sayin my man.

Gator Monroe Posted March 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 (edited) Any links to ArmaLite "pattern" non-serrated Bolt Carriers (Not DPMS or CMMG...) WOULD HELP otherwise how would I find a non-serrated ArmaLite bolt carrier to go with a new ArmaLite complete Bolt ? (Is there an Equipment Exchange section of the forum board here or is Gunbroker type sites only hope ?

jtallen83 Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 Gunbroker and gun shows would seem to be your best bet. You might have to buy an older Armalite just for the parts.....opps forgot you live in the people's republic so it would be a pricey endeavor. I'll keep my eyes peeled for one but it has been a good while since I last saw one on ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the real Armalite thats the best in the world & will make you coffee in the morning , replace your wife & bring joy to the world , but there are a lot of said DPMS BCG's out there with no serrations . https://www.veriforcetactical.com/product/dpms-style-lr-308-nitrided-bolt-carrier-group/ Edited March 31, 2016 by survivalshop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How hard is it to find one of their Bolts ? If ArmaLite is backordered 4-6 months on (Rifles) (Complete Uppers) (Complete Lowers) (Stripped Lowers) ... then perhaps I picked a bad time to begin my quest for parts , I don't think its really panic time (for firearms & parts) as some say but if ArmaLite stuff is hard to get (for various non-panic related causes) then adding the perceived panic factor to the equation at ArmaLite has even Bolts on potential backorder like complete BCGs ...

survivalshop Posted April 1, 2016 Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 You can read all thats on the net & what I have read , because I have never owned an AR 10 & talking to people that have swapped them out , that as long as it head spaces correctly you can use one or the other, in both rifles , they work just fine , but IMO , I would keep the Bolt Armalite in an Armalite Barrel Extension , as with a DPMS Extension , just to be on the safe side . There is so much bias with AR 10 owners on any subject associated with the AR 10 in any comparison with a DPMS, its hard to get any dimensional figures on what is different between the two , if any at all . Its the Chevy vs Ford thing . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gator Monroe Posted April 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 My build will take many months with all the backordered parts I need from ArmaLite if you guys here can help with links or option parts that could speed up my AR10A2 retro classic build I surely need help as Gavin Newsome and Kamala Harris and the Democrat Super Majority will curtail our ability to do what I'm attempting (and more) in California after November for sure...

survivalshop Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 This one reads the Armalite AR 10 Bolt is in stock , I would call to make sure . http://www.762sass.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=70_71&product_id=51 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rsquared Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 These guys also. As SS said though, probably never hurts to call (if they'll answer). I've bought stuff from them in the past. If they've got it on the shelf, you get it pretty quickly. If not, you'll wait for who knows how long. And sometimes their website isn't always accurate about what's in stock. https://delta3tactical.com/store/products/Armalite-AR10-Bolt-Carrier-Group.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
