Ok thanks. I'm going to try and run a mag through it tomorrow. Just a note to anyone who looks at this thread down the line the pin will come out of the gas block just keep trying. I almost gave up but finally got it out. She looks good though
Update. Tested with a different bolt and it closes on go gauge. Sure it will work with springfield bolt but will feel better knowing the combo is in spec. Thanks again for the input
So the bolt closes on round and can rotate (I took out firing pin) But that's only one round from one manufacturer. Hard to tell just by looking if the round protrudes too much. I tried taking pic but u can't see anything. I appreciate the advice. Ill check with another bolt and see if it passes.
Wondering if anyone has changed there saint pistol to 300 blackout. I have the 7.5" and dropped in an odin works 8" 300 blackout barrel. I am building a 10.5 556 upper which is why I want the 300. The problem is the headspace is short with the saint bolt. Using clymer go gauge. Unfortunately...
