[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 2343393, member: 24284"] Your bolt cut for the Sako can not be re-cut for M16. Too much 'meat' already removed in the wrong place. I would remove the Sako and inspect for fouling, clean it good. Before I put it back together I'd buy a new 'kit' (extractor & spring) made by a different company. I know, you don't know who made the one that won't work. So, order from Brownells if they still carry 'um. It just may be the manufacture of the extractor that HS is using. If you end up ordering a new bolt, have the extractor cut made for the Mini M16. That will help with the empty being ejected out the 'window', instead of into the scope. A M16 can be altered to give the same effect, out the 'window', not into the bottom/side of the scope. [/QUOTE]
