Phantom 631 Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 I'm guessing its held in place by threadloc or something. You could try heating it with a hair dryer to break the seal. Phantom PS its only a suggestion! Quote Link to post
mark01856 7 Posted October 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 thanks for the suggestion phantom. i think i best leave it. i thought you could change them with ease, but i have shot with right handed bolts since i was twelve, so i best not mess around with it, ha ha atb mark Quote Link to post
maty j 6 Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 It Is held on with threadloc and from what I remember Is a PITA to remove. Good choice leaving It as Is Quote Link to post
mark01856 7 Posted October 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 just got an email off someone on bbs, and it is very helpful, but far too complicated to start messing with. mark Quote Link to post
rory 58 Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 On my air arms s410 i have taken the bolt off previously, its just the allen bolt that holds it on, should just slide off if the bolt is out, but as others say it may be threadlocked on. Quote Link to post
mark01856 7 Posted October 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 mine is the TDR, if that makes a diffrence? i had the allen bolt off, but it never slid off. ive decided to just leave it now anyway, but thanks for all your comments guys. atb Mark Quote Link to post

Always thought a black handle would look nice on the AA. Quote Link to post
