bolt locking

Post by Augustus »

Just checking with everyone if anyone has had this problem. When the gun is empty and you cycle the bolt I thought it was supposed to stay open? Anyone have any ideas on this?

It should.
One Idea but I'm not sure if it the problem. Pull the bolt back and look inside, if you see a leaf spring on top of the bolt ways this will create issues. The tab on the spring is supposed to be in its groove, but even being careful during assembly it slips out. I know I did it twice and both time issues shooting.
