Hi all,
I just inherited a No. 4 Mk 1 (I will post pix in the next few days).

My cousin was holding it for me and he removed the bolt before putting it into the case for travel.

When I reinsert the bolt I can’t get it to close all the way. That is, I can push the bolt all the way forward, but when I got to close the bolt and turn it clockwise it will only travel about half the way it should.

I’ve watched a few youtubes that show how to remove and reinsert the bolt and it *looks* like I’m doing everything right, but I still can’t get it to work properly.

Does anyone have any advice for me?

I’m new to Enfields but am looking forward to firing this baby!

Along those lines, what books to you recommend for a Newbie?

Thanks and Semper fi
