Long story short I bought my son the above rifle for Christmas from a member on ODT. It was a "safe queen" and it is in near perfect condition with box and all paperwork, tools etc.
We haven't had a chance to shoot it yet so this afternoon I stripped it, cleaned it, oiled it well etc. Didn't notice anything until I loaded a magazine just to cycle a few rounds and see how it behaved and just go over the gun with my 12 year old whos name is... Colt.
I noticed it will not eject a live round. After looking much closer there is NO extractor. It's just not there. After hours of googling, and I am a proficient googler, I learned two things:
1. This is not completely unheard of.
2. I cannot find the replacement part to save my life!
I am hoping one of you fine fellows will just say "use this part from this gun its the exact same" lol wishful thinking I know but my boy is anxious to shoot his AR while I shoot mine.
Thanks in advance!!!!!!!!!
