where to buy spare bolt for 223 galil

[thedave8]

I want to get spare bolt for my Galil i built , anyone seen any for sale? Are the 223 AK bolts able to be substituted? thanks for the help..

I have heard that AK47 bolts and Galil bolts have the same shaft diameter and can be interchanged. I know that AK74 bolts are different. I have never seen an AK with a .223 bolt but I understand that the Bulgarian .223 bolts are the same as AK47 bolts.
In fact I am looking for a reasonable .223 bolt, Galil bolts are expensive. The only ones I've seen are at Apex for $75.00, Sarco has stripped bolts for $60.00.

i compared the difference between my galil bolt(.223) and bulgy 74 (5.45) even tho they look just alike they wont interchange. would they with some slight mods? maybe. but they wont interchange directly.
let me know if you want some measurements.
