installed correctly. Remember the bolt cannot lock rear-
ward with the trigger group removed.
6. Reinstall the trigger group as explained previously (if it
was removed).
7. With the trigger group installed, pull the bolt fully back
until it locks in the rearward position.
TO PREVENT SLAMMING THE BOLT FORWARD
AND DAMAGING THE RECEIVER, DO NOT
PRESS THE CARRIER RELEASE BUTTON
UNTIL INSTALLATION IS COMPLETE.
8. Replace the gas system, barrel and forearm as explained
previously.
9. Again, work the bolt fully to the rear until it locks
open. If it will not complete its rearward movement and
will not lock rearward, you likely have not properly
installed the bolt slide link into its socket in the recoil
spring follower. Refer to step 3 above.
10. With all parts installed (including the barrel) your
Super X2 is fully assembled. It is now allowable to lock
the bolt rearward then let is slam forward (closed) by
pressing the carrier release button. Be sure to always
keep your fingers clear of the ejection port when closing
the action.

Replace the bolt handle by
pushing it in until it snaps into
