Socktech makes a rear cocking spyder bolt that has a twist field strip function, so you can easily take out the entire bolt in seconds. I was wondering if anyone has one on their dragun.

I wouldn't get one for my BD. I have one of those shocktechs on my spyder and I wasn't deliriously happy with it. For one, I never had an instance where I needed to squeege all the way through the marker while I was on the field, and with the quick strip pins I put on my spyder I never minded taking it apart when I was off the field. Also it seemed to me that the screws on the shocktech that hold that twisty bar thingy that lets you take it out come loose way too often. I was always retightening them just so I could fit the bolt back in the marker.

Plus, I like how there are no external moving parts on a BD. If you put a rear cocking bolt on it, not only do you lose that, but you'd have to get a guard for the back of that bolt. Way too much effort

Yeah, it isn't flush cocking, so you need a beavertail. Also, you might need to shape it to fit it in the BD. If you want a bolt, just get one of those N-bolts or the Check-It bolt for the BD.
