How light will the Superbolt be?

Hi!
How much lighter will the Superbolt be?
And btw: Is it right - the lighter the bolt, the lighter the triggerpull?

[ben_JD]

I don't think the weight of the bolt has anything (or at least not much) to do with the trigger pull resistance. You are fighting against the pressure in the air chamber when pulling the trigger, not the weight of the bolt. The backward force of the bolt spring is giving the sear some resistance as well, but that shouldn't change with the delrin sleeve.

Correct me if I am wrong...

The delrin bolt is half the weight of the stainless bolt. The weight reduction drastically reduces the amount of recoil the gun has. It has nothing to do with how much trigger pull force is required to fire the gun.

Thanks for the info!

Super Bolt

I can't think of a reason why, but do you think the bolt might alter the efficiency of the gun? Also, are these bolts avalible anywhere aside from the SFL emags yet?

a lighter bolt means faster cycling rates

I would think the biggest advantage would be that the gun stays still during fast shooting , making your fire more accurate.

BTW, when can we get these delrin blots? Are they still testing them?

Are they going to be the replaceable sleeve design?
