Reassembly

1. To reinstall the bolt in the bolt carrier, start by holding the bolt carrier in your primary hand

with the piston pointed towards the sky and the cocking handle pointing to the left. Use your

support hand to drop the bolt into the large hole in the bolt carrier and allow gravity to be

your friend. With the bolt at the bottom of the carrier, rotate the bolt clockwise until the bolt

cam enters the bolt carrier cam track. Now turn the bolt carrier around so that the piston is

facing the ground. The bolt will fall forwards in the cam track until it stops in the “open”

position. (See Illustration #14.)

2. Make sure that the hammer is cocked (locked underneath the sear) before attempting to install

the bolt carrier.

3. To reinstall the bolt carrier and bolt point the muzzle of the rifle toward the ground (you can

rest it on a chair or other object). Place the gas piston into the gas tube and begin sliding the

bolt carrier forward (See Illustration #15) until the carrier guide grooves are lined up with the

rails on the receiver. Press down on the bolt carrier so it slightly depresses the hammer. (See

Illustration #16.) Gravity then should allow the bolt to fully close, ensure that the bolt carrier

and bolt can fully close. (See Illustration #17.)
