E-Gun parts has a left-handed bolt in stock.

 

Can that be converted to a right hand , replace with a right hand bolt handle and safety? I had thought of that but they are tricky parts to find too.

 

I found one on eBay when I was looking for one. It was pretty expensive. Snagged a 453 bolt too, but don’t have a 453 😂

 

I am in Canada so cannot find a seller in US that is willing to ship here, I am not sure if it is illegal to export gunparts here from US or just too much paper work.

 

Its for a .22wmr/.17hmr "E-Gun parts has a left-handed bolt in stock."

 

A longshot... Might be worth contacting them.

 

I'll reach out to them and see what they say.

 

Another possibility...

 

If it fits that could work ( if they will ship it to me)

 

A third possibility may be to contact these UK sellers to see if they're willing to part out the rifle bolt as a used 452 or 453 does not carry the same premium pricing as it does here in the states. TriggerTraders.com - Buy and Sell New and Second Hand Guns Online UK.

 

I found a bolt in UK but again the shipping hurdle. They do have brokers who specifically handle export but they are cost prohibitive for smaller orders like this.

 

My biggest hurdle is the shipping to Canada. I could have got one on Ebay a couple of weeks ago but they would not ship. I even asked my gunsmith to reach out but no go. Im not sure what the legistics are from the US side but its pretty straight forward here to bring in parts and firearms, just fill in a few forms.

 

Looks like I can use a US broker to ship but it would bring that bolt cost to about $500 US !! Ouch!

Hopefully the other models have the same bolt!!

 

I could have bought a 2E rifle w/chopped off front sight and threaded barrel for under a hundred… maybe. You never know at an auction if someone wanted to go up and up and up. The gun went for $75. It was a real junker, no rear sight, but had a decent stock that was probably worth $60. It had a bolt in it.

 

I've seen a couple for auction, could be a reasonably priced way to replace the bolt, just dont know if it will fit.

 

I don’t know about interchangeably either.

 

I have a CZ 452 2E ZKM 22lr missing its bolt.
From reading the forums and looking online it seems hen's teeth are easier to find than a replacement bolt for this rifle.
That being said, does anyone know if earlier model BRNO/CZ 22lrs have the same bolt. If someone has these models on hand can you check and see if the bolt works on the later model CZ 452??
That might help broaden my search for replacement bolt options. Thank you in advance.

This subject seems to come up every couple of years or so here so you can probably find some informative threads if you search. I'll just say that not all 452 22lr bolts are the same so first you should identify your rifle. I'm pretty sure that all BRNO bolts won't interchange with each other as well. It's possible that any 452 bolt can be made to fit, that would take some research to figure out and doesn't matter unless you have a bolt. Have you been able to try a bolt in your rifle to check operation?

I haven't been able to come across anything I could try for fit.

 

Rebel gun works got back to me about that 451 bolt... "Unfortunately the 451 bolt doesn't fit the CZ 452-2E we have here."

Maybe the later models might work.. 2 and 2e??

 

If you can find a 513 Basic or Farmer that you could try the bolt from it there is a pretty good chance of it fitting. My 513 bolt will fit 6 or seven of the dozen 452's I have. I think it could possibly fit almost all of them if I gave them a little more sear contact by changing the shim in the sear. The ones that it didn't work in failed to stay cocked when closing the bolt. The 513 would be the least expensive to buy. I have seen a few in gun shops for under $300. A friend just sold a 513 Farmer NIB for $280.

 

Thanks, this is great!

 

boltless, I have three brno mod. 1's and a cz 453, in new brunswick, canada. I can testify that there are differences in the bolt designs - the handle sleeves, firing pin lugs and safeties, for example.

 

Thanks, good to know. I don't see an easy fix for the bolt replacment, I think I may just have to keep an eye out for a cheap 452 .
