RE: Is this bolt from a Remington 550-1 broken?
Yeah it seems to work fine. Well, it did before I took it apart to clean it. The firing pin slides in there fine and everything and it just works like it should so far. I've about decided after hearing this on several other forums that I think it was cut too deep from the factory and that's why it's so thin there and they cut through part of it. I'm not 100% sure but it's what others have suggested and it sounds about right to me. I hope it's safe. Everyone I've talked to so far seems to think it is.
Most everyone I've talked to has said it looks cut too deep and that it looks like horrible quality control.
What do you guys think?
