    IN STOCK Hybrid MONSTER Bolt

    Guys, while I am working on the Ultrabolt project, I decided to offer what I have for sale.

    This bolt is my improved Ultrabolt body, but has a standard Grendel extractor because the new and improved Ultrabolt extractors are not done in manufacturing yet.

    I've sat on these, waiting for the new extractors, because in my testing I experienced binding upon extraction with a standard extractor and the new Ultrabolt body. But it seems that I was in the minority among my testers. Most have had no problems with this hybrid setup.

    Sometimes the perfect is the enemy of the best.

    So, I've decided to offer these hybrid bolts at a special sale price of $55 each. Once the new extractors are complete, the price will go up because they cost more to produce.

    At the worst, any binding will resolve as the parts wear in, and, at any rate, the new extractors will be available separately once manufactured.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Bolt bodies are made of 9310 steel and black nitride treated for all-weather durability.

    These fit in standard bolt carriers and take standard firing pins.

    Cool MONSTER logo laser-etched on the bolt!

    SAVE on shipping when ordered with a MONSTER barrel.

    ORDER from SIXFIVEARMS.COM.

    (Same bolt for 6mmARC so tell your 6mm buddies!)

    BFT...my two bolts arrived today. They're gorgeous.

    Thanks for the fast shipping. I needed them as I, ahem, sheared my original Grendel bolt a few days ago developing a 107 SMK load. I think I was over pressured.

          65G. I'm thinking I'm doing the 6ARC in a bolt gun. Things change though

                          AA used to sell two kinds of bolts: the standard model and the "hard use." The hard use had a U-shaped notch taken out of the rear of the lug that was opposite the extractor. Theory was it would help even out the stress load on the other lugs. I believe it also used a more expensive alloy that was not necessarily stronger than the 9310 alloy used in AA's (and now the rest of the industry) bolts, but was more resistant to micro-crack formation and the resulting metal fatigue.

                          Bottom line: The "hard use" bolt was supposed to last for a longer round count under full auto fire before a lug broke.

                          Photos attached of original AA "hard use" bolt.
