Marauder Pistol R/H to L/H Bolt Swap

[detox]

Even though I am right handed I changed my bolt to the L/H side of pistol. This way I do not have to change my grip on pistol while shooting from bench rest or hunting. Simply cock pistol using left hand.

Make sure gun is not cocked and on safe.

Very simple to do. Removal of barrel band is not needed.
Remove shroud from barrel.
Remove upper barrel/receiver assembly held on with four allen screw. DO NOT LOSE Blue Transfer port and the two rubber seals (upper and lower).
Remove allen bolt from bolt and rotate bolt to L/H.
Reverse location of plastic L shape piece (red arrow) held in place with two phillips screws (apply Blue Loctite to these).
Reattach allen bolt to bolt handle using Blue Loctite


Reassemble pistol
Make sure Blue transfer airport and two rubber seals (upper and lower)are in place while attaching upper assembly.
Be extra careful not to cross thread small allen screws that attach upper receiver to lower. The Two rear allen screws closest to bolt handle are the most difficult (press inward on rear tube end cap to help line up threaded holes)

Thanks for posting. The video is easier to understand.

The Marauder pistol with shoulder stock is my favorite airgun for hunting.
