Installing Extractor Collar

**rimfire** · 11-29-2014 05:03 PM

Is there a way to install a new extractor collar and it be tight around the bolt?
I did a search but did not find a thread on this.
How was this done in manufacturing?

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Hold the bolt handle in a vise ( of course you need to protect the bolt handle from getting damaged by the vise jaws ), Place the collar around the bolt body, clamp the collar closed with a small C-clamp, and install the extractor. The collar does not have to fit the bolt body tightly....the extractor will hold it closed.
