I am wondering why the firing pin of this "M97 action" looks so much shorter,
when the standard-length M98 bolt is interchangeable?
Is this a photographic illusion?




Look at the photos of the two bolts. "The cocking cam is behind the bolt handle on the 98." The 98 bolt is the length of the cocking cam longer, ergo so is the firing pin. The dimensions of the two bolts from the bolt handle forward are the same, so the 98 bolt fits the 97 receiver and the extra length protrudes behind the bolt handle, but is covered up by the cocking piece shroud.
