I took the bolt carrier apart last night on my AR-556. While I was wiping the cam pin down I saw what looked to be excessive or odd looking wear patterns. Upon further inspection, I think it my be cracked or somewhat fractured or distorted. I have maybe 500 rounds through this rifle. I have had it for just over a year. I have had no problems with it at all. I do not rapid fire it to see how fast it or I can shoot. I do not use a bump-fire stock or a hand crank or any other gizmo to make it shoot fast. I keep the BCG cleaned and lubed. Is this unusual? Will this thing break? I am afraid to fire it until I hear something. I will post photos soon.
Thanks!
Thanks!
