My bko has a blowback problem, I looked at the sticky and theres 2 bolts that look good, the vapor bolt got a good review by many but some had problems. I have some questions about it.

1. I read somewhere that the new one's will be metal, but the manual says that using a metal bolt voids the warranty.

The other is the Shocktech stubby bolt, does this help cut down on blow-back?

I dont think the shocktech helps with blowback, i dont think it has orings.
I have a vapor bolt, it was a tad large, but i keep it greased up and it works great. I was shooting balls a foot out of the feedneck before i got it, now they dont move.

But is it metal or plastic/ nylon or delrin?

the shocktech i believe has 1 oring on the front of it but doesnt help as much for blowback as the vapor bolt. Most of the reviews for the vapor bolt where for the original since then Goldie has made some improvements and works wonderfully. I actually have a Vapor bolt that I do not need anymore, I may be willing to part with it.
