Cooey model 75

[plinker 777]

Hey Gunnutz; I'm in need of some one familiar with these single shots. I purchased a bolt for my son's gun and I think it's too long....Are there different bolt lengths for a model 75?
The bolt closes on the head/chamber,but the back half of the bolt is still too far away from the trigger sear to engage the back half of the bolt to tension the firing pin.....Any help would be appreciated I think I have either a different model Cooey bolt or model 75's changed a bolt design somewhere along the way

To the best of my knowledge a Cooey 75 is a Cooey 75. If the bolt isn't doing what its supposed to do then you have the wrong bolt. You are aware that, upon closing the bolt, the cocking piece at the rear of the bolt needs to be pulled to the rear in order to #### the firearm? It is not a #### on closing design. Hope this helps.
Cheers!!

Yes there are many variations of single shot bolts. The most common being the one with two grooves cut in the rnd knob. Not sure what you mean on engaging sear. Does it #### when you pull the bolt all the way back? Does it 1/2 #### when you pull the bolt back a bit? If it does those 2 things it will likely go bang-----Cowboy

The Model 75 is a manual #### bolt. After the bolt is closed and the handle down in place to the right, then by pulling the rear section back, the bolt will #### into the firing position.

Humm....no I wasn't aware the model 75 is a manual #### bolt the bolt I have does have 2 grooves machined into the handle ball,but it won't close down 1/16 to 1/8th of an inch in the way of closing the bolt down

The bolt should close and give you the proper headspace. At this stage may be best for a gunsmith to fit the bolt properly and make sure its safe to fire. All of the single shot Cooeys have a manual #### system. Now before I get flamed for that statement I will say I've seen some that were adapted to #### on closing the bolt.-----Cowboy

The bolt will have to be fitted to the action. The action will have to be shaved in the notch area until the bolt handle fits tight when in the closed position..down to the right.

Can I take some metal off the arm of the handle, or back of the action where the bolt comes down into?

off the bolt----Cowboy
