The lug on my dezign bolt snapped off in the middle of a woods ball game...

the breech was stuck shut so I had to get a screw driver put it in the front of the gun and beat the bolt back far enough to open the breech.

the inside of the breech was really messy with scratches and peices of metal hanging in places where it shouldnt be....had to smooth it out with a file..


SHHHH dont tell anybody but i dont think dezign has a good and safe product.... :sshh:


Oh when i shoot i feel air come out of the space in the breech..is this preformance hindering and a waste of air or does it not matter enough for me to replace the oring.

There was a production problem with the Dezign bolts. I do not have the specifics, but if I remember correctly, those made sometime in the mid to late summer were defective.

I have a teammate that suffered from the same problem, but I have had the Dezign bolt for around 20,000 shots and have not had any problems.

I would think you may be able to get your bolt replaced if you would consider giving them a second shot (no pun intended).

Otherwise I would recommend the R-11, Bonebrake, or the Cobra bolt.

Not a bad idea, but I wouldve at least held on to the old bolt and asked for some comp, if not a new bolt to hold onto for an extra.

I am just a cheap bastard though.

Must BUY! After the first game of sunshine series I'm going to buy one

Need to save every penny for paint..

We have 3 angels on our team a mag and a cocker.....i know guns dont matter but we r going to try and intimidate em with a massive volume of paint

1 angel front (me)
1 angel mid
1 angel back (maybe 2 because my freind may let the back man with a cocker use his dark)

DEZign bolts for 2003 are going to be made of ERTLYTE TX
a solid lubricant in the ertalyte...the Patent pending Air delivery design makes them one of the highest flowing Venturi bolts out there. not to mention that you can get the open face design also.
The drive pin is adjustable for those who want the best possible fit with their stock or aftermarket hammers. The drive pin is now made from alloy steel that can be traced to the ore that it was made from. The ertalyte tx cost more than double what the reg ertalyte costs but it is worth it to be able to provide you with a bolt made with only the finest materials and craftmanship. and yes we can make it for the led,and Ir3

In the past the material used for the pin was prone to have some defective materials. and break under stress not all just some those who sent them back were compensated with a new bolt at no charge. These bolts are indiviually made and the price does include the best service that we can provide.
