I'm looking how to do this on my Ruger 10/22. Is the new "auto bolt release" just a normal factory bolt stop that has that little point ground off? You know, the little point that the pin catches on to hold the bolt
I just did this modification by filing the factory bolt stop. It took me about 20 minutes and was a lot of fun. Thanks so much for posting this video. Very helpful
extractor, an aftermarket one from POWER CUSTOM or VOLQUARTSEN pretty much eliminate stove-piping, I am getting one along with a trigger kit for my 10/22
It Dosen't...you are modifying the bolt stop, to release the bolt easily from the bolt lock back position. the already modified part is referred to as a auto bolt release.
hey man this video was great for me. the website i bought the peice from didnt give me instructions so i loojked on line and found this thanks so much.
ps i was thinking about buying a new spring, and a firing pin so jif you can post a video of that being put in place that would be great.....thanks again
The bolt stop spring is the problem. It's weak, You can either replace it or stretch it, I suggest stretching it. Looking at the spring with the legs up like a "V" Measure the distance between the two legs at the tips then put one leg in the vice with the other one straight up then pull back on it like pulling a leaver, this will widen the gap. you don't want to go overboard 1/4-3/8" wider max. You can bend it with your hands in the field. Make sure No Burrs on the sides of bolt stop, Reinstall.
great video- thank you filing it down yourself is a little tricky but when your done its worth it

So is this just a convenience thing or does it modify anything else?

Should have been done at the factory about thirty years ago.

Mine does the same with cheaper ammo. Never had a problem with CCI, Remington yellowjackets, or Thunderbolts. Supergolds and Federals will jam alot.
