    I'll bet the operating slide has a burr or is hanging up, check the little lugs that run underneath the barrel. Maybe an obstruction up front. Try to hand manipulate the bolt into position without the slide, then operate the slide without the bolt...look for rough spots.

    By the way, what brand of "New" springs did you install?
    Regards, Jim
