Tried heat, tried everything. It's now 100% stripped, a 3/8 socket just spins now. So looks like my brand new M1A is pretty useless. Thanks springfield for letting a heard of apes assemble my gun, this is just phenomenal.
Looks like im waiting 5+ weeks to have someone remove it, if they even can. This is just awesome.
