MDT Fieldstock 3D printed bolt aperture filler

[wharpy]

Hi all

I've recently bought an MDT Fieldstock for my Tikka T3x.

The actions fits fine but the trigger mech is exposed. I've reached out to MDT who advise this is normal and wont effect my rifle. They advise that some people 3D print a filler, they don't have any further info on printer files to do it. I do hill and forest stalking and ain't keen on having the mechanism exposed.

Has anybody 3D printed a filler for their MDT stock and have a file that they'd be prepared to share?

Thanks Keith

Would this fit the bill? If so, I'll happily print one for you and send it to you if you cover postage

Hi Jim

That looks like just the thing.

Yes please re printing. Do you have a paypal account?

Cheers and thanks

Thank you.

Reading the blurb about it, and comparing pictures, leads me to believe this is not quite the right dimensions for a Tikka T3. However, all is not lost. If you send me the precise measurements of your hole (ooh err!) then I can tweak the design to fit as best I can. I'm sure we can get something going!

@3595wilk is yours a T3 also?

Looks like there's a need here!!

@pendle once I get the size adjusted properly I'll let you know.

If anyone is near the North West / Merseyside/ North Wales area, or near Exeter (this weekend only) and has one I can measure up myself that would ace!

Geez oh, I've started a business opportunity for JimmySticks!

Massive thanks to you @pendle for bringing your rifle to me, and lovely to meet you.

Great progress and I'm very confident we'll have a workable design in the next week or so!

James, I've never met you but think I like you already!

Thanks so much for this, genuinely appreciated.

Oh and thanks to Pendle too!

No worries, this is just the sort of thing that gets my problem-solving and nerdy design juices flowing. I love it!
