Looks good!

Damn that sucks about the heaspace though. I am not sure on the 2A's but did they also use the same bolt heads as the 303's?

If they did and I think so...there should be a number on the bolt head 0,1,2,or 3 and each are different lengths to tighten headspace.

Hope someone here with a definate answer chimes in.

I know Numrich has boltheads...http://www.e-gunparts.com/products.a...20ISHAPORE&MC=

Looks like 2A bolt heads are different.... The numbered ones for the 303's won't work.

Hey Will

Breathing Life into this Old Dead Thread.

Since I just bought a 2A -- I'm curious, Did you ever resolved the Headspace issue??

If sure, What did it take.

Thanks

That thing looks awesome, now I have to do the same thing to mine! How did you paint the bolt partially like that, did you tape it?
