rngunner Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Hi All New to this forum,hours actually, still finding my way around. I am in England and am waiting for the above to arrive here soon, have read about the lifter biting fingers and getting jammed as well. Our range drill when leaving is to. 1.empty tube of rounds 2.let bolt forward 3.pull trigger 4.rack bolt open 5.insert safety flag 6.leave firing point. Will this cause the lifter to jam when gun is empty ? Also can we send our lifter to the USA to have it welded and returned or can we buy a welded lifter shipped to England to replace it ? Thanks John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeAZ Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 (edited) Never had a problem.... Do the same here OR we can lock the bolt back. (I still use the flag even w/ the open(locked) bolt...I use the Tapco shotgun flag... Works for me. Edited November 11, 2012 by mike NM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-=VILLAMOR=- Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 The modified lifter will not cause a jam with the process you described. All the modification is extending the lifter and filling in the fork so it does not catch your fingers. I just had mine done by Jeff at C-Rums and am very happy with it. Just about everyone on this forum who've had work done by Jeff are happy customers. Email him and see what he can do for you...jeff@c-rums.com. Here is a link to their website: http://www.c-rums.com/Carriers.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkCO Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Shipping gun parts into and out of the US requires an import/export license (not an FFL) to be legal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
