Grip Frame and Bolt Guide Locking Assembly
Warning: It is recommended that you do not remove the grip frame, as removing it
will expose the bolt guide locking assembly; this consists of a spring, detent, and but-
ton. These parts are held in place by the grip frame. If you do need to remove the grip
frame, be careful not to lose these parts.
Removal of Grip Frame
Using a 1/8” Allen wrench, remove both grip frame retention screws turning
by them counter-clockwise.
Gently pull the frame up from the body. When pulling the frame off the body,
make sure not to lose the bolt guide locking components.
Bolt Guide Locking Assembly
Before you re-installing the grip frame make sure the bolt guide locking detent is
within the housing; see Fig. 15.1.
Applying grease to the bolt guide locking detent will help keep it in place.
Once you have conrmed all of the bolt guide locking parts are in place, you
can install the grip frame.
Installation of Grip Frame
Inspect the male air transfer tube bottom O-ring and lightly grease.
Make sure the bolt guide locking spring and button are in place within the frame
and that the bolt guide locking detent is within the air transfer plate.
As you install the grip frame, make sure the solenoid wires do not get pinched.
Gently push grip frame back on and line up the air transfer tubes.
When frame is back on, use the 1/8” Allen wrench and tighten the (2) grip frame
retention screws clockwise.
Removal, Installation, and Cleaning of Ball Detents
Using a 5/64” Allen wrench, insert Allen wrench into detent cover and turn
counter-clockwise.
Clean the detents with a damp cloth and apply a small amount of grease to
the outer sides of the detents if sticking is an issue.
Installation is the reverse of the removal. Do not over tighten the ball detent covers!
Note: Be careful not to lose any of the detent parts as they are small.
Next check that the bolt guide locking button and spring are located correctly
within the grip frame; see Fig. 15.2.
