H OW TO REASSEMBLE THE TRIGGER GROUP —
1. Make Sure the bolt is in the forward position. Use
extreme caution. If you allow the bolt assembly to slam
closed with the barrel removed you can damage the
receiver and affect the function of your gun. If the bolt is
not already forward, carefully and slowly lower it to the
closed position as explained previously.
2. Insert the trigger group back into the receiver. The
holes in the trigger group should line up with holes on
each side of the receiver. (If the hammer on the trigger
assembly has been inadvertently uncocked during clean-
ing , it helps assembly if it is recocked. Do this by simply
by pulling it back fully until it locks rearward.)
3. Reinsert the trigger guard pins, pushing them in with
your hand or gently tapping them into place with a plastic
or wooden mallet, again using caution not to scratch the
receiver.
4. Complete assembly by installing the gas system, barrel
and forearm as explained under “Initial
Assembly/Takedown.”
B OLT D ISASSEMBLY /R EASSEMBLY
The bolt can be removed for normal maintenance or if
the action becomes excessively dirty or wet. The Super X2
is designed to allow full disassembly of the bolt assembly
in the field, without any tools. Although it is possible
to remove the bolt with the trigger group in place, the
correct procedure when removing the bolt is to always
remove the trigger group first. Removing the bolt without
removing the trigger group could allow the bolt to spring
out the front of the receiver, damaging or losing parts or
causing injury to you or others.
H OW TO REMOVE THE BOLT ASSEMBLY —
1. First, always remove the barrel assembly as explained
earlier in this manual under “Initial
Assembly/Takedown.”
2. VERY IMPORTANT: As explained previously, with
the barrel removed you MUST carefully and slowly lower
the bolt forward from the open position to the forward,
