    Seized Enfield bolt?

    So I have removed the bolt on my Enfield a 100x but for whatever reason this time around it wont cock and appears to be seized...

    I have never dismantled the bolt, and I was hoping it's a simple mistake this novice has made..I'm not sure what it could be.

    Is there anyone out there that has some advice, and if your advice involves dismantling the bolt...be gentle and use lamens terms /


    Thanks guys!

    Aaron

    ...and the prize goes to Beerhunter.

    It was late...I was tired.


    Anyhow,

    Anyone have a dovetail elevator that would fit on a model 67-22 Winchester?
