[QUOTE="TacticalJ, post: 1368483, member: 10620"] Ok here are some pics of the installed bolt lift kit and I will explain the process and try to narrate a couple pics. It is very simple really. [attach=full]81917[/attach] [attach=full]81918[/attach] Ok so it is simply the back end of a 38spl/357mag casing that is cut off, leaving the primer pocket and lip of the casing. This can be easily accomplished by inserting the casing into a standard 3/8" drill and tightening the chuck down. Then take a hacksaw and spin the drill. You simply hold the hacksaw blade on the case and let the drill do the work. If you concerned about getting to far back, hold the blade 3/16" or say away from the edge of the lip and cut there. You can the remove any excess on a bench grinder or with a file. At that point, you get a small ball bearing that fits in the primer pocket. I use a 5min epoxy to set this in place. A typical BB works well. Now it's gets a little more technical, because you have to make room for this. I trim the cocking peice sleeve, however, it depends alot on what type of Bold Assembly Screw (BSA) you have. This rifle has a flat BAS, so there was no need to mess with anything else. I have had some that have a quide peice on the BAS that protrudes into the cocking peice sleeve and if this is what you have, you have to remove the guide down to the threads.
