Protect your bolt it’s a very important part of your firearm!
To suit Weatherby Vanguard & Howa 1500 (not suitable for the mini action)
The bolt protector has been designed to house the bolt and automatically release the pressure from the spring when inserted. It also protects the bolt from dust/dirt, knocks, falls and is an excellent accessory for storage and transportation of your rifle. It is a must have for every shooter, as many laws now require the bolt to be transported and stored separate from the rifle.
Features
- Made from plastic, so it doesn’t damage the bolt in any way.
- Releases pressure on the spring – promoting longevity – maintaining consistency in spring pressure.
- Keeps bolt protected from dust and dirt.
- Removable end cap to enable easy cleaning.
- Alleviates the need for touch – reducing possible bolt corrosion through skin oils.
- Keeps bolt gun oils, free of dust and dirt.
- Protects bolt from being damaged through knocks and bumps.
- Excellent casing for storage of bolt when separate from the rifle.
- Bolt protector is resistant to gun lubricants.
This item is tubular shaped and made from liquid plastic which is hard enough to protect and soft enough not to scratch or damage the bolt itself. It has a special built-in ramp which de-cocks and re-cocks the bolt when inserting and removing it, this relieves spring pressure to prolong the life of your bolt and also the accuracy of your rifle.
It reduces the need to touch the bolt shaft with your hands – removing the lubricant or adding contaminates which would speed up the rusting process on the bolt.
Fitting Guide
The bolt protector is specific to right or left handed actions (not interchangeable). The bolt protector will decock the bolt when inserted removing pressure from the spring. Ensure that the bolt is cocked when inserting into the bolt protector.
