This is what gets you in trouble may I ask why you wish to put M16 parts in an AR15 rifle? What purpose does that serve?Quote:

As far as "Stuff" I will assume you mean M16 fire control parts and that is a major violation of the NFA 10 years club fed and a 250,000 fine (maximum sentence).
Once again what is your agenda why would you ask a question like that? There is only one reason to put M16 parts in an AR15 rifle and ATF knows what that reason is. Knock your self out we will all take a collection and send you a case of vasoline to make your stay in club fed more enjoyable. [wink]
It was a question whether i could replace the ar-15 bolt carrier with an m16 one and a bolt(which is what i meant by stuff, is the m16 and ar15 bolt even different?).
Why? Cause of what Ice Pirate said
" One huge and really major problem with the AR is that stupid massive cut in the underside of the bolt carrier combined with the equally stupid notch in the top of the hammer. It was said that these cuts were made to prevent conversion but the only thing they really do is cause the weapon to self-destruct, and jam like a SOB. There are always rough edges between these two parts and it's been my experience that it is the major reason for jamming AR-15's. You just don't see this with the M-16, because the surface of the Bolt Carrier that re-cocks the Hammer is flat and smooth as a babies butt, and the top of the hammer is rounded and equally smooth.
When at Lowery in '82, a representitive of the CBI came to visit. They'd just picked up a bunch of AR's for their officers and were having major jamming problems. I told him the same thing. I said if you'd just swich out the hammer and bolt carrier for ones from an M-16, those problems would go away.'
What's this "jam" that you speak of? I've never seen one with my Bushmaster even when it was new and the parts weren't broken in.
Are you talking about your Hesse?
BS plain and simple an AR15 bolt is identical to an M16 bolt. You said “Stuff” not bolt.Quote:
