S&W sent out an Inspection/Recall alert on the bolt / Firearm.
Still good info for those that never knew there may be an issue with a popular firearm .

I posted on this recall early on in this forum's existence, since I have a M&P15-22 that was part of the recall. I called S&W, and was given the option of either sending the bolt in for inspection, or sent a plastic gauge to measure the bolt face myself. I opted for the gauge and tested it myself, which showed the correct depth. I've shot it several times with no problems experienced, it's very accurate and fun to shoot.
Here's my posts (2) on the subject in the past, on what was checked re the bolt face:

For me, It’s probably watching the WWII movies & shows that showed them. I just always want one (in fact I also own a 1943 P38 as well, but not all numbers matching) Lucky!👍😁

Is that just an S&W thing? Had to send wife's 9EZ back to the mother ship for a recall of a purported similar issue. Naturally, at least one person asked what could possibly be wrong with having your gun go full auto. (Please don't feel the need to explain it to me, the comments were tongue in cheek...I think)

This was happening a few years ago. Hopefully they have corrected the problem. This was why I was able to purchase a slightly used one on the cheap. It has worked flawlessly for me since I have owned it. I know a lot of people then purchased the Ruger 10/22 for that program.
