Wondered if anyone has had the lug on top of the bolt for the charging handle break.One of the guys I know with a fairly new block version has had this happen,he's put about 6000 rounds through.Was talking about this at the club on Sunday when one said had the same happen to his Uzi one.
So is this a design flaw and has anyone tried Bob's famous customer care to deal with it.

It's known as the drive key, gas key or bolt carrier key. A common part to break on ARs. Generally a cheap part to source, 15 quid or so, but I imagine Fat Bobs will be made from unobtainium to his exacting specs and only available from him or everything's void, for the princely sum of £99.99......

Okay thanks Sim,the guy I spoke to said it was an easy enough job as in his case at least it broke at the two bolts that attach it to the bolt.
