bhunted 887 Posted February 9, 2016 Thats a AK ain't it? I had a WASR and caught it in mine too. Seems they break off in shipping because the other half was laying in the box. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Krdshrk 3,878 Posted February 9, 2016 I've got a few plastic ones I've snapped already or are close to snapping - looking to get metal/rubber ones. Hornady has one for ARs that you can pull to rack the bolt... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Old School 611 Posted February 9, 2016 The problem I have is putting a plastic flag in a hot chamber. I generally just use it to prevent the bolt from closing. I used it to prevent the bolt from closing one time and went around with one of the directors of CR. Right or wrong he was an AH! I don't want plastic in my hot chamber. Shane was it melted stuck in there? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shane45 807 Posted February 9, 2016 No it wasn't melted. Just a fairly brittle plastic. And as such, in my view, only a matter of time before it snapped off in a chamber. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
