It was a piece of cake. It was easy to remove the old and install the Schuster using the square head of a quarter-inch socket extension. Fits just right.
At the range I started with the valve dialed all the way out - M1 becomes a straight pull action. I adjusted it down about a half turn at a time until it would eject but not lock back. A quarter turn beyond that gave enough energy to lock back the bolt when the clip was empty.
I was shooting the Remington Express 150gr PSP rounds - cheap at Walmart and had only one misfeed during some rapid fire. Shooting the same round before the Shuster, they would misfeed more often - I have a couple of bent 30-06 rounds to show for it.
As for feeding single rounds I fed them partially into the chamber and controlled the bolt up to where it needed a little nudge to lock - no problems with that either.
All in all a fun afternoon with the M1.
