lapping... you want to use a vary fine compound, 600 or higher... im using JB bore paste
rub it on and and work the bolt, 50 or 100 times...


this should take out all the rough and high spots..






wipe it off when done, and use brake cleaner to flush..


you dont "need" to take apart the bolt to polish the cocking ramp.. you can use a dremel with buffer pad or felt wheel and the fine emory eraser bits

if you WANT to take it appart, read here

keep in mind.... the C-clip and the spring compression is a MAJOR PAIN IN THE ASS



another place you want to lap is the junction where the 2 bolt haves meet..

to do this, put the front part of the bolt into a padded vice.. pull back on the rear half, and it will separate about .5 inch



add some lapping compound and spin the **** out of it...

when done it should be supper smooth and shiny..
when fully done, you will want to put grease here



you can also see the lapping marks in the receiver... you will also notice, every edge, from the ejection port to the rear of the receiver and all inbetween has sharp edges..
im removing and polishing those, it will be covered by the KG when done.. you could cold blue it if you wanted to keep it blue

i did this with a deburring tool, and a dremel with the emory eraser bits
