Dunno if I'm posting in the right sub-forum but I just wanted to give everyone a heads-up. Tactical Ammunition has .264-LBC-AR bolts in stock, both Type I and II. Shipping is $15 (obscene) but whatever. I picked up a Type II last night, waiting on an AA hard use chromed bolt but I hear it's a 6 month wait. Figured I'd be getting my barrel (let's hope, invoice is dated 2/8) before the bolt, last two components I need.

;D Thank You ;D I ordered one, have one on order since late Feb elsewhere, we will see which gets here first. Its good to have a spare. I also ordered a bunch of little stuff, like firing pins, springs and other things likely to get lost or broken just to for when (not "if")that happens.

How good is the quality of these bolts? Good enough for the Pro Staff to be using. Greg

Just as an FYI, Les Baer has .264 LBC bolts in stock (.134"), for $85, $95 shipped. I just ordered mine, and cancelled the one I had backordered from AA back in January.

I called Les Baer a month ago and "Nope, we don't sell individual bolts." They're right across the river from me too. I'll call 'em again, AA is really aggravating me as I ordered back in February and it took them a month and a half to enter the order into the queue so I'll probably get the thing around Thanksgiving or my 32nd birthday (I just turned 31 16 days ago ). I want a chromed bolt just so it matches my carrier (I'm anal heh). Rifle's built, now I gotta break in the barrel. Yay fun lots of time and lots of ammo heh. I think I'll do that later this week, go shoot my 5.56/.223 with my new red dot and 3x magnifier mounted on an ADM STS QD mount. And pistols.

:'(Still waiting on both bolts ordered. My barrel should be here soon. The bolt is the only other piece missing. I hope they get here soon. I guess I'll send a few emails to see when to expect things.

Just got confirmation the bolt will be here Friday, I don't know if all the small parts were what was holding up the shipment but it is on its way. I ordered on May 6. The one I ordered on Feb 27 from Competition shooting still hasn't shipped. Barrel was ordered the same day. I called last week to check on the barrel last week and Denise said their move has pushed things back a little. She was going to send me an email once they found out where everything is.I hope with the move things don't get too crazy and in the rush to catch up quality doesn't suffer. Now to find primers at non gouging prices.

Opened my package Friday and all the small parts are there but the bolt ISN'T. Took a picture of the box called them within moments of opening it. The girl said she would get back to me once she checked with her shipping manager.I mentioned I didn't want this bolt to get pushed to the back of the line she assured me it wouldn't. I sent the photos of the opened box by email. Nothing heard from them. Called today and the guy I talked to said it looks like they were out of stock and it will be out next week. And it arrived yesterday now all I need is the barrel and the fun can begin.

Les Baer is out of TYPE II bolts. I talked with them this AM as I was curious how their stock was holding up.
