Am I about to die?

[bellavite1]

Just noticed this thin line on one of my bolts.
It goes all around.
Looks almost like a case head separation in the works, but it's so perfect that I wonder if it's just a machining mark and I simply never noticed...

I?d guess tool mark but who knows.

Personally, I?d just splurge on a new bolt.

And to answer your question, we?re all headed for death but how soon yours is coming I couldn?t predict.

Machining mark, I would use it.

Based on the pic and without seeing it in person, that looks far too consistent to be a "natural" failure.
The final judgement falls on you, but that's my opinion.

For the rest of the group's benefit, what are the details as far as manufacturer, age/round count, etc.? A lot of companies outsource components, but if we have the same from the same source, we can eyeball ours and chime in.

I am not 100% sure, but I believe it is a PSA.
I did a google search and came up with this:

So, I guess I'm good.

If I do die I want to be buried with all my guns and ammo...

That's going to require a fairly large hole. When you go, to simplify the process, try to leave a crater.

I have been known to fart from time to time, but even I don't fart that bad...

That bad? Is there a good side to farting?

Yup...it keeps people away.
