How to Mod ACS Bolt?

[Highbinder]

If I'm understanding what Nexton is saying, it should be easily reversable. Probably self explanatory once you do it.

Personally, I have no need of disabling. I have a Viewloader VLocity like "breakxeggs" has on his MR2 and I have no chopping problems. Sorry I have no pic for ya.

You don't need to remove the sight rail nor the cocker to get the bolt out man...that's way, way, way too much work, just pull the pin, cock it, and kinda shake it out.

EDITED: for some odd spellings

Hey, that will save me allot of time, thanks

I found the piece you guys were referring to and made some adjustments. I turned the allen wrench counter clockwise a few turns but it felt like it was stripped more than anything. I will play this Saturday and let you know if that resolved my problems. Thanks again

Counter-clock? I haven't looked at it myself, but did that tighten it or loosen it? Is it some sort of latching mechanism (pin through hole thing), or does it stop the mechanism via a screw putting pressure on something?

It felt like it was releasing pressure somewhere. I can't tell you if it did anything as I am out of air until Saturday.

Try manually moving the spring mechanism

I tried to break down my ACS bolt, just for thorough cleaning purposed, that allen bolt on there was insanely tight. So tight in fact, that for fear of stripping it, I let it be, it wasn't really dirty anyway.
By the way, I always leave my sightrail off anyway, so I don't have to take it off. However, I tried the "jiggle" thing, and it did not work. The ACS bolt does not "jiggle" out on my gun. Wish it would, but no.

It's only on tight because it's glued in with red loc-tite, it will break open once you turn it counter-clockwise. Just re-tighten it back in afterwards, or loc-tite it back if you wish.

Also, try jiggling your gun and pulling the trigger while the gun is on with the barrel pointing upwards. It should fall right out.

Well it's more of a hard yank, you hold the gun so the barrel is pointing up, and have the gun cocked (NO AIR), and yank the gun up, so the bolt will come down through the holes in back. It's what I do at least.
