Pivot the elevator so that the forward portion of the elevator is even with the outside
edge of the cavity in the receiver.
Insert the rear of the bolt assembly, with its bolt lock downwards toward the front inside top of
the receiver, into the barrel opening of the receiver. Depress the ejector (located in the side of
the receiver opposite the ejection port) to allow the bolt assembly to slide fully rearward
into the receiver.
The ejector must fit into the corresponding slot in the bolt (Fig. 11).
Push the elevator down until it rests against the bolt. Position the rear of the bolt assem-
bly even with the rear of the clearance cuts in the sides of the receiver (Fig. 13- B ).
Position action bars so the notch on the bar is even with the cuts on the inside receiver wall
(Fig. 13- A ).
The bolt slide should be positioned with the slotted side facing up, with notch to the rear
(Fig. 13-1).
Assemble the bolt slide, lowering the front of the bolt slide first, the bolt slide protrusion fits
into the corresponding cut on the bottom of the bolt lock and action bar slots (Fig. 13-1).
