Browning maxus bolt handle.

[Daveyp]

As title states, can anyone point me in the best direction to order a new bolt handle for the Browning Maxus or am I as well off going back to my local gun smith whom I bought the gun from ?

 

Whilst on the subject has anyone else had any problems with their bolt handles jumping/popping out when or after they fire shots off its happened to me on my last 2 shooting trips. I've been fortunate enough to find it both times but might not be as lucky if it happens a third time. The gun is only 6 months old and hasn't been stripped down enough to warrant this happening in my eyes.

 

Thanks in advance

I'd take it back as it might be the mounting hole, not the handle and you could be wasting your money.

Either way it is a warranty job so shouldn't cost you.

I've never had a problem with mine coming loose.

I suspect the fault is within the bolt slide i.e. it has a faulty retaining mechanism.

 

As others have stated, back to the shop with it.

That's good enough for me I'll ring the shop tomorrow morning and hear their excuses.

 

Thanks lads.
