I had a viewer comment: "Hey! Why don't you show us how the bolt of the 760 comes apart and goes back together?". So I figured I would show that process to you today. So getting started what we'll need a small hammer.

You might need a big hammer if your vote is stubborn like mine was the first time I took it apart. A small computer type screwdriver a one-eighth inch punch. It's good to have a magnetic part straight. Just make sure nothing gets lost. A pair of needle nose pliers and of course your bolt.

So let's go ahead and get started. When we look at the bolt you can see that there are two small pins. There's a smaller one on this side and a larger one on the other side that hold the actual bolt into the carrier.

Alright. So if you look there are some channels cut into the bolt and we can see that little pin that sticks through the bolt carrier into the bolt. So the first thing we want to do is take our small computer screwdriver. Okay, and we'll get in there and push those pins up first. And then we'll take our needle nose pliers, and we'll pull that smaller pin out go ahead and set it on our tray well. The pliers won't let go off. Now we'll move on to the bigger one. On the other side you can see it here. Take out screwdriver again. Push that one up just enough to be able to grab it with the pliers.

Okay. We'll take that larger pen and set it aside and now the bolt will come free from the carrier. So we'll go ahead and set our bolt aside all. Right now I'm not going to take the extractor out because there's a focus you can see. There's a small pin in there that holds the extractor plunger and I don't have a punch that's that size. So we'll leave it in there for now. The only part left is the firing pin. And you can see focus alright.

You can see there's a small little pin that holds the firing pin in. So the firing pin has a slot cut in it. So what we'll need to do is chuck this up in a vise. And I'll show you how to drift this pin out. Its hard to do the first time but once you get the hang of it's not too bad. Let me get the vise, set up, and then we'll drift that pin out. I've got our bolt carrier chucked into my vise and what I'll do is use some softwood, some pine or something leave the front lugs of the bolt carrier sticking out past the wood blocks. And then chuck where the pin goes. Through make sure that's in contact with the wood blocks. So you get a nice solid contact.

Alright and I've already started this pin a little bit so we'll just drift it the rest of the way out. Take your punch and just drift that pin out. It just dropped on the floor but no big deal. Well we'll get it later all right. So what we'll do is take the bolt carrier back out of the vise. You can see once I take the firing pin out there's that notch that lines up with the hole in the bolt carrier.

The reassembly process is just the reverse and one thing to mention before we get back to the reassembly. You can see in my bolt carrier. I've got a 760 and it's the model which has the chequered. The checkering cut into the stock and the four in. So the later Remington's have a firing pin spring that sits down in the bolt carrier. If you've got one of the earlier 760 s. I believe they do not have a firing pin spring. That's one thing to notice. If you open yours up and you've got an early model of 760 and it doesn't have a firing pin spring that's the way it's supposed to be so don't panic. If you've got an early one and you don't see a firing pin spring. So let's try to get this guy back down in here.

Okay, we've got the firing pin spring back into the bolt carrier and I've already started. The pin that retains the firing pin and you'll notice this is the the top of the bolt carrier. So the pin when you drift it out you want to drift it from top to bottom. When you put it back in you want to go bottom to top. It's good to go ahead and get that pin started.

You can see it there so what we want to do is maybe back it out. Just a little bit with a punch. Just enough to get the firing pin lined up. Go ahead and put your firing pin in and that notch will line up with the hole here. Let's see. If we can get some daylight through here see, if you can see that so you can see there's that notch in the firing pin, so we'll move it out of the way and.

We'll start our pin from the bottom. That will at least line everything up so we can get it set back in the bolt carrier. We'll go back to our vise all right we'll take our eighth-inch punch.

We'll just drift that pin back in there. Okay, so you can see. That pin is now set back into the bolt carrier. The firing pin is secure but it's also free to move around. That's what you want. You don't want the firing pin to be stuck forward because if it is once you go to close the action you're gonna have a slam fire. And that's what you don't want.

So make sure you're firing pins nice and free. There's the large hole that was on the side of the carrier and you'll notice the actual bolt. You have two different size channels. You've got a smaller one and a larger one. So obviously, the larger one is gonna line up with the larger holes. We take our pins that we set aside in our tray. I will take the larger one and we'll get it started into the bolt carrier body.

We'll line up the channel and just push it in with your thumb now. If you have trouble just take your punch and kind of give it an extra little push but it should go in pretty freely. So if it's not going in freely don't force it and try to figure out what's causing it to bind up.

So we take out smaller one. Just push it in with your thumb and there you have it. There's your disassembled and reassemble bolt for the 760 game master.

I know that a lot of times. They don't carry this type of stuff in stores. However, if you do a website search of their website you can find damn near anything even coffins.

So let's get this out of the box, and we'll lay it out. So you guys can see what's in the bag anyway. Just got it out of the box again.

It's the wheeler engineering Delta series ar-15 armorer's essentials kit. Basically comes with your mag. Will vise you know I got to go ahead and get that down to the bench here. On this is your upper vise block comes with that set of instructions and this is a it's got your wrench castle nuts that all that good stuff.

It's not the torque wrench, this is the combo tool. And let me I'm had to read what this says because it's got a lot on it. Let's see here combo tool.

So you can get that done and then this is all the different type of other tools that comes with it and again.

I'm gonna have to read what it is. I don't really want to get everything out of the bag here but it's your pivot pin installation tool. Roll pin installation tool torque wrench magwell by weight mag.
