Drill a 3mm hole in it, poke a 2mm Allen key through the hole and undo the screw inside, the cap will push out.

if you mean the venture adjuster cap then yes, same as doing a car ignition lock

Don't do this, Brooksy isn't talking about anti tamper in firing valve body, he's talking about bolts that hold bolt housing on. Just do what Neil says, or do what I do, use a pillerdrill and small drill, only drill into it enough to tap a small Allan key into it and it should unscrew, take your time. Rog

Thanks folks. Much appreciated. Just to clarify we are all meaning the small domed head thats recessed into the action on the right hand side?

Yes mate, Rog is right. It looks like a shear bolt but it's actually a thin cap. I managed to drill a small hole in mine and then pushed an electrical screwdriver into it, it came out easily.
