I thought I'd ask 'cause you'll never know. I'm looking for a bolt carrier assembly (5.56/.223 - used okay). All retailers are out of stock right now and the price gouging on the gun auctions at this time are just totally ridiculous. Anyone?

Jon,
At one of our local gun shops they specialize in the AR's, Is there anything I need to know other than what you posted? I will call and ask.

Hey I'd appreciate that! I just need a plain (not coated or anything) bolt and carrier (aka bolt carrier assembly). Let me know what their prices are like.

He has no AR-15 bolt carrier assembly but he said he has one for M-16 he say they work on the AR, he said some people don't care and some people only want AR parts and don't want to mix and match.

M-16 bolt assembly bare military issue (not coated) $175.00

I will be glad to get you one if you want, here's his number if you want ot question him yourself
Don's Gun Shop 239-334-6779 or I will be glad to go back to him if you have more questions, I don't know anything about them so you'll have to be specific, if you need me to do more bird dawgin

Thanks buddy I really appreciate it. I'll be giving him a call to see what he's got. I may just have to wait it out until this mad gun rush has past - it's just gotten really stupid and a good friend of mine just happened to be building an AR in the midst of all this and is short a few parts that normally wouldn't be an issue to find right away.

Google+shopping rox!

Jon, Not sure if you are looking for used/new but you might want to check out http://carolinashootersforum.com and post in the Wanted section. They are very responsive, and there's a lot of AR users.

Cool thanks buddy!
