Does anybody know what bolt this is? It seems to be a 2 piece aluminum with a plastic center.

RogueFactor answered my question.
It is a rare bolt made by Venom Toxic Toys called the Thunder bolt.

It's my understanding that this is the lightest production bolt to date. I dont know for certain the details of this bolt, but its been stated that the body is made from titanium, and the base from stainless to handle the sear wear. The piston and head are made from some sort of plastic(nylon maybe?).

Like the AGD delrin SuperBolt, these had issues with separating as well.

It was in a Classic Mag I bought off of Craigslist. The guy I bought the stuff from must not have known how to clean a marker. It literally took me 3 hours to clean up the 2 Mags and gear. I took the thumbnail screw out and the valve wouldn't even fall out. The body was stuck to the rail from the build up of paint around the sear. LOL. And then he must have decided not to include a HPA tank and Revy because they were not in the boxwhen I received it. Now he won't email me back. Well this was a nice find.
