I finally got some time to spend on my own guns, so I took advantage of it by installing a Cburns71 steel bolt into my mulitpumper 1910. Talk about time well spent! I have been using this gun often because of how accurately it shoots BBs, and for how easy and fast it is to cock and pump 2-3 times- despite the crappy feeling bolt it came with. Even after reshaping and smoothing the stock bolt it was still hard to work. Now, the new bolt makes cocking a very easy and smooth motion instead of using the sharp, stubby stock plastic bolt handle. The way I cycle the bolt, I don't actually hold the bolt by the ball. Instead, I loop my index finger over the bolt handle to open it then slide it closed with the back of the same finger. Just worlds better.

A while back, Cburns71 sent me these photos of a Barra 1886 he picked up in a pawn shop. He did some custom work, including a steel bolt and an oak stock with laminated cocobolo inlays. I know it's not a Daisy but thought it would still be interesting.
