JohnGalway Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 I can't help you Ive but empathise completely, I did a smart thing today and stripped the trigger of my shotgun today, then made an a**e of putting it back together, so back it goes to the shop tomorrow But at least the *****r is clean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul223 Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Easy , take the bolt out the rifle hold it your left hand, with your right hand grab the black cap and rotate clock wise as far as it will go then pull it backwards, now position a screw driver blade between the firing pin flag and inner body of the bolt ( an m6 nut with the side hacksawed out to make it a c shape is best, and advised ) now rotate anti clock till the cocking lug sits in the fired position, the bolt handle should now be free and slide out of it's recess, don't loose that 'c' m6 nut firing pin will now slide out no probs, hope this helps!

Just don’t turn the bolt head around once you have it stripped otherwise you will have to ****** about trying to get it back into place. If you want to replace the spring you will have to make up a tool for compressing it. I made one out of one of those cheap little bar clamps. Just have to drill a hole in the middle of one of the pads to allow the firing pin to pass through it so that you can compress the spring. G.M.

Which bit are ( were ) you having trouble with?? Edited to add I bet it's the bolt handle, try my 6mm ( spanner size 10mm ) nut, drilled out to 6mm and cut to a c shape with a hacksaw, this will then fully relive the pressure off the bolt handle, which may be a little tight but nothing that a tap won't move, will try to get pic's up later!

JRDS Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Why do you want to strip it?? If it ain't broke leave it alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deadeye ive Posted July 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Paul Excellant :o .................If only I'd waited ........The gunsmith informed me he had to use a copper punch on it to get the bolt handle to release but looking at your pics which are a great help I can see the relativeness of the instructions :o Why do I want to strip it down . Because having changed all my reloading brass to lapula I still had a misfire which is 4 now in around 125 shots .by process of elimination I narrowed it down to the bolt which incidently was clean as a whistle inside with everything in correct working order so it's a case of suck it and see now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul223 Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Is the pin length ok?? I've seen a t3 punch holes through primers with being to long, if it was to short may be crushing against the anvil would not be consistent, what do the primer strikes look like?

deadeye ive Posted July 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Paul The chap who stripped it down has gave it some serious TLC as my good friend who watched informed me (I Had to work BTW).......He can't find nothing out the ordinary . May be it's because I'm not using the rifle regulary enough and a bit of dry firing before an outing might loosen thing's up so to speak .
