I have a Remington 40-X w/Hart 6mm bbl., but the bolt is missing. Will a bolt from a BDL, or something else work? I realize that the bolt will have to be fitted to the gun, but I can't find a 40-X bolt anywhere.

Yes, a short action bolt (if it is a short action gun) will fit, but needs to be fitted.

I'm going to send this 40_X back to the factory for a bolt, and to have the action re-blued. Will they have a problem with the after market barrel, and trigger? I think it's a Timney trigger, and it's very light of pull. I'm worried that they will deem this trigger un-safe, and replace it with a factory job. Any thoughts?
