Exciter 20 Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 After 1K rounds or so the spring on the BHO lever slipped off. I was waiting for it to happen and now after it has I finally removed that pain in the ass. I'll either buy or modify my safety lever. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vance665 225 Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 Just put the spring back in. I think putting a big hole in your safety is dumb. Its your gun though, have at it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
forsaken352 235 Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 Did you notch the bolt hold open lever? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Exciter 20 Posted October 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 Yes but apparently not deep enough Quote Link to post Share on other sites
netpackrat 566 Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 I have had good results from notching the lever AND bending the tail of the spring over. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
YOT 3,743 Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 Bolt hold opens are cool. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Heartbreaker 1,085 Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 I ditched the lever after half an hour trying to reassemble the FCG. It goes together WAY easier without it. Notching the safety is easy enough to do and works fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mullet Man 2,114 Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 Bolt hold opens are cool. Especially when they can be manipulated by swiping the safety. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
evlblkwpnz 3,418 Posted October 30, 2016 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 It takes me about 1 minute to install a FCG and the BHO lever. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Exciter 20 Posted October 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 (edited) It takes me about 1 minute to install a FCG and the BHO lever.Well you are faster than me. It took me 2:23 to do mine.I just need to notch it better and seat that spring with a little more purchase on the lever. Edited October 30, 2016 by Exciter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Exciter 20 Posted October 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 Well y'all have inspired me to put it back. Thanks netpackrat. I put it back in and bent the hell out of that spring over the lever. It's not going anywhere now. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
