I have a serial # DUA Magpul edition version with the blue bolt spring that I fired 180 rounds of Federal bulk pack first time out to range.
I apparently also had an OOB round go off.
A small 1.5" small steel colored spring was laying in the upper reciever I assume this was the extractor spring and the shell casing was blown apart just above the rim. I think the extractor was blown off as well as I compared my bolt to what others have posted and it did not have the extractor piece.
I think my extractor was blown off as every round fired after this stove piped. After 6 stove pipes I went home and called S&W. They mailed me a Fed Ex insured return shipping label, no questions were asked of me. "Just send us the rifle." was all the guy said on the phone. I sent the riffle back.
It should arrive @ S&W this week.
After reading these forums, I wanted to post my experience with the OOB round occuring on a "blue spring" bolt.
I was suprised to have a malfunction like this thinking I was good to go with the blue spring bolt. i think mine only had a blue spring and not the extractor with the anti-rotation fix.
Do the "up to specs" bolts coming back from S&W have blue EXTRACTOR springs as well as a large blue bolt spring?
Do you guys think they would fix hammer springs to prevent OOB strikes?
