ABSTRACT:
This relates to a method and apparatus for increasing the rigidity of a conventional pre-existing rifle action receiver of the type which includes a cartridge magazine port having first and second longitudinal edges, an ejection port, and a bolt which reciprocates within the receiver to engage a cartridge and urge it into a chamber at the rearward end of a barrel which is secured into a threaded opening in the front of the receiver. First and second plates are fixedly coupled proximate the first and second edges of the magazine port and extend downwardly therefrom. Rigidity can be further increased by coupling a transverse lateral plate between the first and second plates. Weight and balance can be altered by coupling an insert between the plates.
