MRA Renegade/Maverick... is the bolt removal a deal breaker for you?

Not getting any meaningful customer support about the issues I am having. Giving MRA more chance to respond before I post further details. I feel they should have a good opportunity to repsond and dislike the idea of posting anything bad about a Canadian company until I have no other choice.

Dumb question, but did you call them? I have spoke to a few people at MRA in the past and all were very helpful.

YMMV
 
I dont mind taking out the stock to pull the bolt. The awful design that OP mentioned, I believe was to avoid the 'ar variant' tag. The single greatest complaint I have with it is I get a tonne of light strikes doesn't matter if I use the oem bolt head and firing pin or the on from my ar. I have no idea if I got a lemon and just tolerate it or if it's a wider problem.
I also got mine to replace the AR so I am willing to put up with more of those idiosyncrasies just to anger our overlords.
 
Having had a further round of emails with MRA I now understand their point of view. I like this rifle and support Canadian where ever I can.

However, given my very limited experience with this rifle (one range trip), I will say it does not seem to like some mags and does not like 7.62 Nato as opposed to 308 Win. I will give it another go and hopefully have a better experience next time.

is it a headspace issue? As in could the use of 7.62 nato be just a matter of reaming the chamber a little more? Tough for the average guy but a simple task for a smithy.
My thought originally was to build one of these mavericks with a .338federal barrel and I'm still contemplating it.
