Good Bolt

Primarily a back up bolt. Does work well with what I have. I would recommend this bolt to others.

M16 BOLT ASSEMBLY 5.56X45MM NITRIDE MP

Great Value, outstanding quality, have one as a spare if you are a competitor or tactical LEO or military. Easiest and quickest way to replace a broken extractor is replace the bolt.

All of them work well

These were installed on Superlative piston kits for multiple AR pistol builds for LEOs. They have reported back their satisfaction with the functioning of their weapons
