AE MK3 bolt

Re: AE MK3 bolt

An AW Bolt works in an AE, which is really all a MK3 is. </div></div>

LoL not all of them interchange. Don't think the ATs will work in a AW/AE and vice versa.
 
Re: AE MK3 bolt

Hi AE bolts (2 posn safety)will work in an AW but an AW bolt will only work in an AE MKIII (3 posn. safety & bolt lock).
So an AE MKIII (bolt lock) will not work in a MKII (no bolt lock).

Really so the fact I just put my AW bolt into my AE Mk 2 and vice versa and both works to include turning the Mk 2 into a Mk3 is why again... ?

I must have Magic AI that don't listen to people on the internet.

Nope, not just yours. Mine does it too.
 
Re: AE MK3 bolt

I need a magical AE MKII that transforms into a AE MKIII, lol. Where are these bolts available, are they available?

Is there an actual engineering reason for the claim that an AW bolt will not work in an AE MKI/MKII, or is it just a liability avoidance statement?
 
Re: AE MK3 bolt

Sorry just went & tried it & it does go but remember there are tolerances involved & the AW & AE MKIII actions have an extra cutout in the rear to allow clearance for the bolt lock.Thus it may not work in ALL cases.

it's very easy, buy an AW and then just swap the bolts... Magic !
