Bolt doesnt stay back

Hey, i bought a new 15 rounder at a Reno gunshow(glad they didnt ask if i was from California), and it was new in the wrap, and when i fire my last round, the bolt doesnt stay back. Anything helps!!:insane:

I'd be careful if those happen to be illegal in PRK. Hate for something stupid like that to blemish your record and keep you from your apparent desire to join the USMC.

It's a good thing you're still in Reno, and don't plan on bringing it back to California. You wouldn't want to get a visit from the ATF now

I see people all the time at my range bust out 30 rounders with their Ar's, and my 30 rounders with my Daewoo and AK, but the rangemasters dont care. But anyways, why would the bolt not stay back?

Only the 30 rounders will hold the bolt open. The 15 rounders do not. And, the bolt will not stay locked back-you have to manually lock it in place. If you pull the 30 rounder out, the bolt will fly forward on you.

Ya, but why does it stay back on my 10, I know the intricate details, but I thought that if it worked on my 10 it would work on my 15. Thanks for the help.

You have a different type of follower in your 10. Look at the top of the followers side-by-side and you'll see the difference.
