Stand by. I could not find it, I loaned it to a buddy some time ago, and he is sure he lent it to another enthusiast who has yet to come across.

All you need for the bolt release is a small allen key. It actually works perfect to hold the latch in place as you drive in the roll pin. I always use painters tape to avoid scuffing the lower.

Good deal. I couldn't count how many I've built. There are just little things that you figure out over time that make things easy.
