So, since with ammo as it is, I have not been shooting much, so I have bought a few doo-dads and gadgets for my rifles. I recently got a new red dot for one of my ar-15s. I also bought one of those laser bore-sighters. The one shaped like a bullet and goes in the chamber and shines a laser out the barrel. well the instructions with the bore sighter said to not close the bolt and use the extractor to remove it from the chamber. OK, no problem, I lock the bolt back, slide the boresighter in the chamber, and get the red-dot pretty close. Now time to remove the boresighter. I just pushed it in their with my finger, but it seems pretty tight-it won't just shake out. Get a long rod and push it out from the other end? Of course not! I merely hold the rifle pointed straight up with my left hand on the handguard, I take my right middle finger and stick it into the magwell, right behind the firing chamber, cause I don't want my new calibrated laser bore sighter to bounce around the room and lose calibration. Then I drop/slam the rifle onto the floor against the buttstock. I hope you are with me so far.
CLINK, the bolt slams home, well almost home. Now my middle finger is pinched like hell, and I am trying to pull the bolt back left handed with my right bird finger caught between the chamber and bolt. it hurts like hell.
