1066 Posted October 22, 2023 Report Share Posted October 22, 2023 I've just designed and printed this little gizmo to de-cock a M98 bolt - works very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1066 Posted October 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2023 Not at the moment David - I can't see any problem with making one but I would need an actual bolt for a few days, it's sort of thing you can't make by measurements when 3D printing. It takes several tries and a bit of tweaking every time to get it right. The plastic stuff shrinks a bit as it cools and not always in the same direction but once you have the machine dialed in it's right every time. The Mauser one took ten prototypes before I was happy - actual printing takes around 3 hours each. I've also just made on for the Remington 700 bolts: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re-Pete Posted December 20, 2023 Report Share Posted December 20, 2023 Only use the thumb to de-cock it.......I have a c-spanner carefully ground to cock it. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
