    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

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    It was late...I was tired.


    Anyhow,

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