[QUOTE="Wildyote, post: 159019, member: 2259"] The extractor may be one issue and can be resolved by having a gunsmith install a M-16 extractor. The M16 extractor has to be cut in to the bolt and pinned. I would have a gunsmith check headspacing and he might have to set it back. I would send it back to Remington as you said and they should take care of it but you are on the right track. I have quite a few rem actions and great actions for doing a build. The modifications that I recommend is timney trigger, bed the stock and free float the barrel, and buy a aftermarket stock with a bedding block or pillar bedded and skim bed. If you are going to rebarrel the gun have the action trued as they will lap lugs, square bolt face and action threads and install a good custom barrel. [/QUOTE]
