Super Black Eagle Shell Carrier Question

[scottryan]

Can any Super Black Eagles hold a shell on the carrier?

If so, what is the serial number cut off.

its a cutoff alright,,rather the lack of,look on the bottom of your bolt,,if there is one relief notch then you can ,,if theres two you can't.

Its a real simple mod to the bolt to allow a round on the carrier if you have the newer bolt with 2 notches on the bottom.

how do you do the modification to the bolt - or where can i find out how? you can do this on a 1 yr old sbeii? thank you

Fill the second groove with epoxy or have it tigged.

[nolaboy1]

suppose i have problems with my still-under-warranty gun & it needs to go back to the factory. can you knock out the epoxy if needed to make it look unaltered? last, which grove is the second? (i'm not in front of my gun/bolt - at work). thanks

I already know this. This doesn't answer my question.

As far as I know, all SBE's will float a shell on the carrier.
All SBEII's will not ('til you fix them).

No they wont because I have a regular SBE that was made around 1998 or 1999 that does not float a shell.

It is not an HK import but still has the round safety.

You can also trim out the notch at about a 45 deg angle to the rear of the bolt it is faster and easier than epoxy and you don't have to worry about the epoxy coming out.
