Hi all, I looked all over the forum and didn't find an answer. What sort of spare gun parts do you recommend? I have an AR plus bolt hunting rifles and am picking your brains more than anything. Thanks up front and Merry Christmas to all!!
 
Merry Christmas, for the ar oops kit is nice to have and get some extras that are wear items. For the bolt gun it would matter what it is, spare extractors nice to have.
 
If you only have one AR.. get a spare complete lower.
If you are like most THR AR users you have a number of AR's so just swap out the lower (which has more parts that are prone to wearing out.) with one of your others.
You can only use one AR at a time. Simple! :)
 
The problem with getting AR-15 parts is once you start pretty soon you just have a second AR.

That was going to be my suggestion... the best parts kit for an AR is another rifle. ;)

Actually, I have had some parts fail on our AR's, including sheared bolt lugs.... so now I carry a complete bolt assembly, in addition to a lower kit, in my range box.

As far as other firearms... besides and extractor and/or ejector, and maybe a spare magazine, your guess would be as good as mine, depending on the specific weapon.
