residue from vent holes in the Bolt Carrier.
2. Clean and inspect Bolt, Cam Pin, Firing Pin and
Firing Pin Retaining Pin thoroughly.
CHECK THE BOLT: Look for cracks or fractures,
especially in the Cam Pin hole area. Inspect
Bolt Face - Bolts with any pitting extending into
the firing pin hole should be replaced.
CHECK THE CAM PIN: If it is cracked, or chipped, it
should be replaced. NOTE: Cam Pin can only be
installed in Bolt from one side - so Ejector will be
positioned correctly.
CHECK THE FIRING PIN: If it is bent, cracked, too
blunted or too sharp, it should be replaced.
CHECK THE FIRING PIN RETAINING PIN: If it is bent, or badly worn, it should be
replaced. Never use a “Cotter Pin” as a substitute for a real Firing Pin Retaining
Pin. Cotter pins are not made of heat treated spring steel and their round head
shape will cause damage.
