Hey Slag do they make Ambi-bolt releases for these??

@scarred4life1 I'm not sure, check dsarms website to see if they carry something like that.

my bolt stop does not engage after the last round, or when i load new rounds in.?? its gotta be mags???

@cautionfiamable Take a quick look in the magazine well while no magazine is inserted. Lock the bolt open manually and see if you can see a small little metal piece sticking out from the bolt stop. If you see one, try inserting an empty magazine in and see if that metal piece is long enough to touch the follower (the part that pushes down with the ammo), if not, that piece is broken and needs to be replaced. If that piece is working fine, check the gas regulator setting.

@slagman5 thank you, i actually did figure this out a while back, my bolt stop is indeed broken

@cautionfiamable Yah, sorry, just noticed the date on that post. I guess I never noticed the notification of the comment back when it was posted, lol.

Thanks, I just hope I have enough time off to finish it sometime soon. It's pretty time consuming... Not really the actual web page writing, but the creative process behind designing each page. I'm not the artsy type at all, lol.
