Shot Gun Bolt

[bmiller]

Thanks for the response Kurt. I bought an M1 and had c-rums weld the lifter. I really like the gun.

This is a great thread. I ninja-cocked my shotgun today after finally understanding exactly how the system works. Good grief this is awesome!

I still can't understand this system unless im under the influence of Kurt's cider and then it's clear as a bell. Unfortunately I can't drink while shooting So I had a hole cut in my bolt so I could observe things first hand.

Jesse,

What does that bolt weigh now? I still see a few places you could drill and mill

On a more serious note....do you have any issues with the firing pin retaining pin backing out when that rubber grommet has little to no shoulder to engage?

[Jesse Tischauser]

It's pretty light! I'm ginna run a few thousand rounds through this little guy then put it on an even stricter diet.

Several of my benellis have lost that little rubber grommet and replaced a then a few times but they keep getting chewed up so I quit replacing them and haven't noticed anything adverse occurring.
