As the breech bolt sleeve/firing pin assembly is
screwed back into the breech bolt, the cocking ramp
of the firing pin must compress, then decompress
several times before the assembly is fully screwed in.
Place the breech bolt on a flat, hard surface, and using
the breech bolt handle and the head of the bolt as a
support, firmly turn the breech bolt sleeve clockwise
until it snaps into position. Once the bolt assembly is
installed in the action and the bolt closed and cycled,
the firing pin will cock, and the “safety” can be moved
back to the intermediate or rear position.
2. Insert the bolt into the receiver as explained previously.
Your firearm is now fully assembled. Immediately confirm
that the “safety” is in the on safe position. Take time to
wipe down and clean all external surfaces as explained under
“Cleaning and Maintenance Suggestions” on page 25.
