My bolt turned out lots tighter than I thought, but since I had the time and the shims I went after mine yesterday first with 1minutes recommendation of .007 and the bolt wouldn't close. .005, same thing. Down to .003 and it still was a no go. .002 and it closed. Not sure that .002 is going to make a bunch of difference or if that thin a shim is going to stand up to bolt opening and closing and not wind up somewhere down in the action some day. If any of you are doing this, make sure that you pay attention to where that detent is going back counter clockwise once you have the shim and pin back in. Go past that detent and you had better have some hand strength to overcome that bolt spring tension getting it back to where it belongs. Don't ask me how I know.


My other auto is a .45

The bitterness of poor quality is remembered long after the sweetness of low price has faded from memory
