I have a T3 thats having a few mods done to it .
In my research of the T3 , the Bolt Shroud has come up a few times .
Is the standard Shroud a weak link in the T3’s design or is replacing it with an aftermarket one just purely cosmetic ?

Just cosmetic I reckon.
Just cosmetic it I have seen the odd T3 that's missing its bolt shroud as it's just fallen off
Cosmetic, I suspect people munt them by pulling apart and putting together the bolt incorrectly by using excessive force when things don't click smoothly in place.
mine had a plastic one that I removed by popping a primer
replaced it with a ali one
If you can get a nice shaped one they improve how the rifle looks, less plastic more metal
im sure my ali one will blow off just as quickly if I poorly formed any more cases
Exactly right. I cracked a bit off mine years ago trying to dismantle the bolt. Put it back on and it's no worries at all.
The T3X shroud is made of metal so it’s unlikely to snap unless you man handle it.
I’m running a Sterk shroud. Bloody nice and adds a bit of class.
3D printed titanium.

Purely for show. Does nothing the standard plastic one doesn't.
