Gunsmithing Bolt stop/release Mod

Re: Bolt stop/release Mod

Thanks, nice actions on that site....

The "accessories" link is under construction,

use the "parts/prices" link and scroll down to bolt stop under accessories header....
 
Re: Bolt stop/release Mod

O.K. you motivated me to add this to my current project. Lucky I have a predator right here for location. Should make it pretty easy.
 
Re: Bolt stop/release Mod

yes. like that. i believe he used a Ruger M77 MKII bolt stop, but it looks the same as the Hawkeye bolt stop. it needs a small window milled in the action and a hole D&T. i don't remember if it needed a small flat milled on the side of the action or not, tho. possibly.

and why should i want it? </div></div>

On a Rem 700 it takes the bolt release mechanism off of the trigger assembly and puts it on the side of the action.... it's stronger, and it looks nice

( I am interested in the GAP or Stiller type, not the mauser type...)

I can't speak for Firemarshall,
I like to do gunsmithing as a hobby,
I have a lathe and a mill and am a professional welder..
I am not LE or a competitive shooter, so the building is as much fun as the shooting for me...

Re: Bolt stop/release Mod

BTW, the mauser bolt stop also houses the ejector, not sure about the Rugers....

The Stiller or GAP kind is much smaller/refined, and for bolt stop purposes only

Do you have a link?
 
Re: Bolt stop/release Mod

I'm pretty sure that GAP uses the bolt stop made be Defiance Machine. I've been checking on some of these myself, and they will supply a "KIT" for $25, but no print to go by. So if you want one you will have to do the measuring yourself, or send it to me at OLD LODGE ARMORY and we'll install one for you. Sorry had to put a plug in for the shop.

Re: Bolt stop/release Mod

wow, great pics. Looks like something I'll definitely have done. Does this mod override the trigger bolt release and how? If I was to get a jewel trigger put in, then the bolt mod, do they do anything to the trigger to negate the bolt release? Thank you
 
Re: Bolt stop/release Mod

I have a box full of them here at the shop.

The one's I make are essentially clones to what Nesika Bay Precision uses on their actions.

They are made from SS and are a touch softer than the bolt to ensure the part doesn't peen the lugs when cycling. This is an important feature as over time a hard bolt stop will destroy the surface finish of the lug. (which is counterproductive to the whole blueprint/lapping thing. . .)
