    AR parts are in tight supply, I just went to Brownells and everything is out. You can try Model 1 Sales or M & A or Del-Ton or any of the other on line vendors, might be best to call. Ordering on line might just get you a "stand in line" response date.

    There's a complete bolt on the auction site, but it's an M16 and I've no idea if they're OK in your state.

    Fulton Armory had them in stock about a month ago.

    Their site does not suggest that they are out of stock now.

    Added info: I ordered a complete bolt assembly from Fulton Armory (bolt, carrier, etc-ready to drop in)

    It was an AR type bolt (elongated recess in the bottom-can't trip an auto sear) and it was a hybrid. Let me explain:

    It had a complete-circle rear (the part that touches the buffer) and, most of all, it had the gradual angle hammer ramp that was designed for the M-16. Fulton-Armory also sells hammers that have no "notch" on the face. The notch is a PC "lawyer" addition and has no positive effect on performance.

    Ref item in blue above, that's the alteration that prevents the carrier from being an NFA item. You're good to go with this set-up. Best, Joe

    there's a few listed on the auction side right now for $195.
    thats the going price if you don't want to wait 3 mos.
    I picked up a chrome assembly for that price last month, but theyre sold out now.

    Federal regs changed a few years ago to allow full-auto capable M16 carriers to be installed in semi-auto AR's.
