NEA 7.62x39 Enhanced Bolt info?

[kavemanx39]

hello i am wanting to order this product(NEA 7.62x39 Enhanced Bolt) from you but have a question or two. will it work with any 7.62x39 upper such as a psa or will it only work with NEA's barrel/upper. also i tried to find info on it but to no avail just curious what makes it "enhanced"?
thanks for your time cheers.

I think they beefed up the locking lugs
But let someone else chime in with some for sure knowledge

I have the nea 7.62x39 bolt and barrel mounted in an old norc upper and carrier. I've fired a few hundred rounds through it so far without issue.

I run mine in a DPMS upper,it's just a beefed up version of the 5.56 version(the lugs to be precise)

So the NEA enhanced bolt head locks and headspaces fine on a DPMS barrel extension?

It's an NEA barrel.

I tried it out with some headspace gauges on my PSA 7.62x39 and it head spaced fine.id imagine it would work with most 7.62x39 barrels .

Edit:just compared it to another 7.62x39 bolt I have,it is noticeably more robust

it does not work with my PSA 762x39 barrel

Here's a comparison to my Windham bolt,obviously bigger

I'm sure some other manufactures barrels will work,but I'd recommend using the NEA barrel to save the headache of trying to find one that has the same extension.

Edit:just checked my latest PSA I bought from another sponsor,the lugs are distinctly a diffrent dimension,

Thanks guys - that's the info I was looking for. No big deal all told, just saves me making the mistake

My God, the lugs look like theyre hanging on to the bolt by the skin of their teeth.

if you do a search on google or ar15.com, the rounded lugs or the lobster tail lugs are the 2 more reliableish design that wont sheer off as easily as the regular square lugs
