How to Measure the Size of a Bolt
- Step 1: Measure the shank’s diameter. The shaft of the bolt is called the shank, and its diameter is the first dimension used to describe a bolt size.
- Step 2: Determine the thread pitch.
- Step 3: Measure the length of the shank.
- Step 6: Measure the length of the threaded portion of the bolt.

What is the difference between an ar15 and M16 bolt carrier?
The main difference between an AR-15 and an M16 lies in the lower receiver. M16 lower receivers have a third trigger pin hole for the auto sear, while AR-15 lower receivers do not. M16 lower receivers may also be milled to slightly different dimensions to accommodate the full auto fire control group.
