How to make a 98 Sealed bolt cover fit a Salvo/AB

Right I bought a RAP4 copy sealed bolt assembly and modded it to fit my Salvo.
This is how I did it.

I had to grind some of the reciever cover down, so the handle had clearance to move freely when cocking the marker.

This is what I grinded away..


I also had to grind one of the bolt covers brackets down quite a bit, so it'd fit over the parts of the reciever that I didn't want to grind away.
It's the bracket on the left.
I also took a littl of certain points on the handle, to stop it catching.

Cos it's meant for a tippmann 98, the bottom receiver bolt is slighly in the wrong place.
But I found that If you grind enough away, I made the cover fit "near flush".


these pics to show it clears everything.



And here it is painted to match & on my fully constructed beast.

Looks good!

Cheers,
At least it'll keep any crap from getting inside it now.
I've been after one of these for ages, but always ended up getting something else.
Cos I wasn't sure I could get it to fit.
But since then, I've been "modding my brains out", So I thought..."sod it" & got it.
Plus now I've got a dremel, the skys the limit.

Lmfao, great job then

Love dremels

Actually its a Dremel copy.
Its called a "Silverline" something
But it's rechargeable, Works on full welly when it's plugged in....even if the batts dead.
So it does the job & only cost me 10 quid.
Love Ebay.

I just did this i cant upload pictures for some reason but looks pretty flush though. ill try yo upload later thanks for the tut. Dunk

did you follow my guide/piccies?

With enough grinding in the rightplaces, it will fit flush with only the top bolt holding it down.
I cut the other bolt head off and glue it on to the bottom bracket, to fill the hole.


Glad it worked out for ya mate.

Yeah it was actually extremely simple to do, now i just have to grind the second bolt and glue it so there's not an extra hole just chilling there

I just ordered one, instead of charging handle. Too much fuss with the handle. It looks like my bulky stock may get in the way of pulling back the handle....I don't know. I'll post pics when I try it.

Tried it yet David? 
Don't forget the piccies.

what type of stock is it?

As you can see in my pics, I dremmeled some of the handle at the back and part of the reciever, so it cleared.
