I should have had a spare

Relatively new bolt in a Rock River carbine.  I had no spare parts, but will from now on.  Thanks Birddog for the loaner bolt.

How many rounds till that happened? I remember when you got that RRA. I've got 5K (conservative estimate) plus through my Bushmaster and haven't had any parts fail yet. :o

I would have to estimate, but under 3000 rounds.

No problem Bro, anytime I can help, I will.  I have seen it happen in less than 1000 rounds, it happens.
When the last deer disappears into the morning mist,
When the last elk vanishes from the hills,
When the last buffalo falls on the plains,
I will hunt mice, for I am a hunter,
And I must have my freedom.
