I have a IR3 coming and have order a softnose bolt from WDP.....

Is this an easy thing to change? Does anyone have any hints or tips on changing the bolt

Thanks loads....
Most simple thing in the world mate, you'll see as soon as your Angel arrives.

There's a catch at the back that you pull to release the rotobreech, which then just pulls open. You slide the old bolt out, then oil and insert the new one. Will take you about 10 seconds at most!

You must never put oil or grease on any Angel bolt……..

It will make it swell thus leading to scarring of the bolt and not running smooth.

Keep them dry at all times cleaning them only with a lint free cloth.

Bingo! Was just about to post the same thing. No oil, it's meant to be run dry, it's made from a self-lubricating material.

To install it, pull the knob at the back of the marker and twist it to one side so that it rests against the body of the marker in the back position. Push the breach block to the left and it will pop open and the bolt will slide out. Simply slide the new one in where the old one was, close the breach block, and turn the breach knob so it snaps forward. I honestly can't believe I just made such a simple procedure sound so complicated. Seriously, it's very easy, the breach slides open, the bolt pops out, you slide in the new one.

The only maintenance basically, is cleaning. Stick the bolt in and you are ready to go.

Clean the bolt feedneck and eyes if they need it apart from that do not touch the love juice/oil/lube it is only needed internally
