Was in the local emporium today and saw something quite unique.

Here's the bolt out of an ATR in 308 that has fired less than a box of factory ammo.

The bolt body is not threaded into the bolt head. It is pressed in.

Worse, the bolt body is splined, but the head is smooth! eek

The customer is upset, but the dealer here is really choked, as he has sold a few, and now is concerned about his customers having this happen in the field.

Anyone else seen this?
