Convert AR Barrel
#2
You might be able to convert the AR-15 barrel to a bolt action AR-15 or side charger AR-15 with the adjustable gas block shut off. I know people will cover the gas port with the gas block so no gas can escape for use as a dedicated 22 LR barrel and 22 conversion bolt.

I don’t know of any traditional bolt action rifle receiver which uses an AR-15 barrel extension to mate up to an AR-15 bolt. By the time you remove the barrel extension and machine the barrel to fit the bolt action receiver I’d rather have a purpose built replacement barrel fitted to my bolt action receiver.

If your a machinist and have access to the tools a AR-15 barrel could be fitted to a bolt action receiver as a project. Is it financially feasible, probably not if you have to pay someone to machine/install the barrel.

Unitah Precision sell an bolt action AR-15 upper which fits an AR-15 lower. I’d assume they are using a traditional AR-15 bolt and AR-15 barrel extension. I don’t know if they sell individual components for a home build project.
