Bolt action bolt position

[Dan Masshardt]

Do you guys normally leave the bolt action setting as it comes (position A) or change it?

 

[JD Combs Sr]

I change it.

 

[Dan Masshardt]

Is changing it supposed to be more accurate to the bolt action on a real rifle?

 

[JD Combs Sr]

Yes, there may be "lefty" rifles out there but I have never seen one, not that I have seen everything but...
When it is switched it appears more like "most" rifles. With the clip then on top, it kind-of resembles a rifle's sights or a rifle scope, if you squint your eyes a little.:biggrin:

I leave it as is and have had no complaints. My customers know it's not a real rifle anyway. lol.

I leave it. It is easy for me being a righty, to use the bolt action with one hand the way it is.

I am wondering how you go about changing the bolt?

I know it is "unmanly"---but read the instructions
They now tell you how to reposition the bolt, if you want.

Hmmm...I looked all over my instructions and didn't find the instructions on how to change. So, I figured it out myself!

I change it.With a little practice,you can work it with one hand.I think it fits better in the pocket with it on the right.

I change it. Mini screw driver is all you need. Look in the end, you'll see the screw head. Loosen it a little, then switch it around.

 

[Tanner]

Oh and tighten it back up once you switch it. ;-)

Assembly
• Position the bolt either in Position A or Position B. (Delivered in position A)

• Position A - Check to see if bolt is tightly in place. To tighten see Note 1

• Position B - Reverse the direction of the bolt. See Note 1 on loosening / tightening the bolt.

• Rotate the clip to slot B (press into slot)- do this by Unscrewing the Cap and rotating the clip.

• Re- attach the cap after re-positioned

I have had two pens returned for loose bolts. They were in the original position. They had been in daily use for 4 months or so.
Any one able to put lock tight or something on the threads.

Also I learned this week that the top of the pen unscrews and the clip comes off. Was I slow or what.

I switch the bolt position on mine. I apply locktite on the screw threads before screwing it back in. No complaints yet.

Haha, I know you send me instructions every time I buy kits from you. But I only ever look at them just to remind myself what drill bit to use. LOL:biggrin:
