Here's the link to the thread for which you were (unsuccessfully) searching :p : http://www.savageshooters.com/showthread.php?10160-bolt-release-modifications (http://www.savageshooters.com/showthread.php?10160-bolt-release-modifications)

Since it was posted before the change in software, the photo links don't work, so, below is a quote with the photo links cleaned up.


i just got done with my bolt release mod....and it couldnt have been easier. i cut the jaw off an old pair of pliers, and shaped it with a cut-off wheel and a file until i was satisfied. marked reference points on the action and bolt release, figured out where to cut, took the bolt release and trigger off and started cutting. then put the two pieces together and welded them after a little file work i was ready for some dura coat(which i have not done yet).

i think this is the thread but the image links no longer work. i had asked if there was a way to change the images links when the new site saw an occurrence of * to the format that works with new script but the question was dodged for some reason.

if you want to see the images so manually select just the link from the brackets; it works i just tested it. here is one from that thread with the plier jaw spot welded to bolt release; http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/l577/pawisland1/IMG_2221.jpg

i will be doing a hidden bolt release that will be located under the rear trigger screw. i will make it so a normal key can be used to release the bolt for cleaning and such. when the gun is cocked it will have a little nipple my middle finder can feel to confirm or deny if the gun is cocked; this nipple will only be able to be felt when the gun is cocked. i will be filling in the shaved part of my action with jb weld where the old release sat and trying to make it the same contour of the rest of the action. i will duracoat it all when done.

Thanks. He made a video and I found that on you tube. He has video and welding skills as well.

I wonder if any one could flip the bolt release to the other side.

Aw, shucks. You can come down from that tree. We're all friends here. :welcome:

Not to hijack the post, but if you take out the sizing information in your HTML image code, the images will display correctly:
instead of
* (Where * is the URL of the photo)

use this simpler code:

*

Does that make sense? I hope so.
All the best.
