Installing the Volquartsen Automatic Bolt Release.
(see
figure 3)
Now that you have the Hammer out, you can install an automatic bolt release.
I use and recommend the Volquartsen
Automatic Bolt Release.
Hold the trigger housing in upright position and simply push from left to right
pin #B-35, Mag Latch Pivot Pin, (see figure 4) just far enough to clear Bolt Lock,
(#B-41).
Lift out Bolt Lock and slide VQ Auto Bolt Release into position.
Slide Mag Latch Pin (#B-35) back through holes into position.
At this point you can continue
to remove Trigger/Sear/Disconnector assembly to install shims, or reassemble hammer, bushings and
springs and reassemble trigger housing into receiver, and secure with pins (#B-5).
Be suse
to check all parts function correctly before firing rifle.

Removing the Trigger/Sear/Disconnector.
Remove Trigger
Pivot Pin, (B-21) (see figure 5)
The Trigger, Sear and Disconnector will come out the top of
the housing, be sure to watch the Trigger Return Plunger and Spring (#B-39, 40) will fall out of
the trigger guard when removing trigger, set those parts aside.
Watch not to let the Disconnector Pin
fall out, notice the relationship of the Trigger, Sear, Disconnector,
and Disconnector Spring. (see figure 6)

Installing the Trigger Shims.
Now its quite easy to
install the Trigger and Disconnector shims.
Slide the Disconnector
Pin (KE02800 - bottom pin in Figure 7) slightly out one side, about 1/8 inch, just enough that you can install
a shim, put a drop of gun oil on, slide pin back in to hold shim.
Now slide the pin out 1/8" the other way,
and install a shim on the other side, and the disconnector is done!
The Trigger shims will install the same way, but
first you will need a Cheater Pin.
We have included a 1/8 X 7/16 steel cheater pin in our
kit, or a piece of 1/8" wooden dowel rod from the hardware store works well, you may have to sand it untill
it is just under 1/8" so that it will slide into the Trigger and Sear, and cut it to 7/16"
in length with a razor knife.
Slide the Cheater Pin in to hold the Sear
(B-23), back it out 1/8", install a shim, (see figure 7) add a drop of oil, and slide cheater pin back to hold the shim,
do the same with the other side.
Reassemble Trigger and Disconnector into Trigger Housing, don't forget Trigger
Return Spring and Pin, and install Trigger Pivot Pin (B-21) at the same time forcing
out the Cheater Pin.. Using the same method as installing shims in Disconnector and Sear, push the Trigger Pivot
Pin out one side, about 1/8", just to clear and install a shin on one side.
Do the same to the other
side, add a couple drops of gun oil, and you are done with the trigger!
Install
Hammer Shims
Hammer Shims install inside the Hammer Bushings (B-43, see figure
8)
Add a drop of gun oil and you are ready for re-assembly.
Install Hammer (B-17A), Hammer
Pivot Pin (B-19) and Hammer Spring (B-44)
Be sure Bolt Lock Spring
(B-42) is on the right side and the step-leg of the spring is on the inside bottom, (see figure 2) This end of the
spring will engage with the Bolt Release (B-41), and the straight end will be trapped under
the Ejector Cross Pin (B-35) when installing the Ejector. Further re-assembly is simply the reverse
of dis-assembly.
It
is of the utmost importance not to shim too tightly!
You will want some play, and no binding
on any parts.
Check firearm for proper operation
before loading with live ammunition.
If you are unsure about reassembly, see a qualified Gunsmith.
You
are solely responsible for the safe operation of your firearm.
