I had a friend who owned a Universal M1 Carbine back in the late 1970's. He brought it to me one day and said it had quit working. One look and it was obvious that the bolt had battered itself against the receiver and the face had mushroomed. Apparently the bolt wasn't properly hardened. I did a little file work to remove the metal that was causing the problem and it worked again but I told him that it wouldn't last long and that the he4adspace was likely well out of specs. I don't know what he did with it but I've avoided anything made by Universal since.
