So I recently acquired this, what I believe to be anyway, a 1998 stock cocker. However, I have never seen a bolt like this one before and was curious to know what it is and if it was any good?




I can't find the pic of the front of the bolt, but it has an irregular pattern of I think 5 holes.

I think it's a Taso, which is just a slightly modded stock bolt.

It's nothing great, but it'll work.

i prefer the open face bolt over a venturi on a cocker

Yes, TASO, and that's a 1997 cocker.

1998 had the ramped and rounded sight rail. 1999 had the threaded body for the IVG. 2000 had the shorter backblock and large banjo bolt.

If you go back to 1996, they were the same as the 1997s, but didn't come with a factory ball detente (so threads in body would be bare, drilled/cut post anodizing) and I think they still had the pot metal frames. 1995 had a "less matte" hard anodizing and looked more polished.
