Interesting... then again I didn't think the current bolt design is "broken" and needed fixing.. haha

If t Hey wanted to impress me, they would've made multiple calibers available besides 5.56 alone. What about 6.8SPC, or 7.62x39? Those calibers are more in need of a new bolt than the 5.56.

I was wondering what happened to this. I remember their rep going on LFnet a few years back and talking about how they wanted to change the bolt.

I see they are around $ 150 . I cane see this for a competition or mil spec operator , but for the regular shooter , not sure , with that kind of cost .

I'd buy one... for a more temperamental round. If they did this in 7.62x39 I'd buy two of them right now. If that blow back 5.7x28 ever hits the market, I'd like like to see this bolt there too.

Otherwise... why? I've shot a LOT in my life and I've never broken or wore out a standard bolt... and that was before all the NiB, eXo, TiN coatings that are available now.
