    Cracked bolt carrier+ help ID'ing replacement carrier

    UPDATE- It is a Polish carrier; see closeup photo at the bottom of this post.

    Has anyone ever seen a bolt carrier crack here before? The crack runs from the hole where the gas piston rivet is supposed to be, up towards the gas piston. This is the bolt carrier that came with my 2003 SAR-1 and maybe has seen 200 rounds.


    Also; can anyone help me ID the below bolt carrier? Any insight would be greatly appreciated! (It's Polish!)



    After posting this closeup photo on another forum, members were quickly able to identify it as a Polish bolt carrier:


    Here's an interesting tid-bit as well:
    "Polish WW2 proof marks were adaptations of the old Hanseatic league guild markings, IIRC"
