nick65 Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 Hello and thanks for the add. I have a Aramalite AR10 with around 800 rounds thru it. Today at the range I had failure to eject after shooting around 70 rounds. I thought the lip on the extractor broke so I packed up and went home When I took the BCG apart I found the extractor pin sheared off. Has anyone seen this before and where can I find one. I checked all the usual sites and no one even has a bolt repair kit in stock. I ordered one from Midway but dont know when it will come. Thanks in advance.

jtallen83 Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 Check back at d. wilson, doubt he will be out of stock long; http://www.dwilsonmfg.com/store/p24/308_Bolt_Carrier_Field_Repair_kits.html Curious, how old a rifle is it?

jtallen83 Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 QC seems to be a challenge for the new Armalite management. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisco Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 I didn't have the extractor pin shear, but I had the O ring under the extractor spring break, and caused the same thing. Replaced it and it works fine.Might want to see if Armalite has any AR10 field repair kits. I think they might have DC'd them after MRaley left, but I am not sure.

MikedaddyH Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 If you replace it , have a friend handy. It is a three hand procedure. Takes about a minute once lined up. ( Didn't want to say 3 hand job ! Lol ! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rsquared Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 Be careful with delta 3 tactical. They don't always necessarily show if something is in stock or not. At least not properly all of the time. I've ordered parts from them before and waited a long time for it to finally get to my door. I'm not bashing them by any means. I'd still order from them if I needed to. But I'd call them just to be sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick65 Posted January 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 Thanks for all the replies. Midway had the pins in stock so i got them and repaired the bolt. Put 80 rounds thru it yesterday seemed to be ok.I also just got from Midway a bolt repair kit. Is the spring on the firing pin just for the AR10? I also emailed delta3 and asked if they have the AR10 kit in stock before i order it. Thanks again to all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclemoak Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Apparently I need to look through the forums a little more often. Let me know now if you need any parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
