    Striker protrusion - how far was it sticking out ? - I would have thoght that even if it undersize that it wouldstill have left a slight mark

    Did the rifle cock OK ?
    Broken spring, broken striker ?
    Can you push back the tip of the striker back into the bolt head easily ? Is it 'flopping about' ?

    Stripping the bolt should show you anything obviously wrong.

    Mine are not the best, but they are not too bad. I can think of lots of Enfields I'd rather have but instead of constantly striving for more, sometimes it's good to be satisfied with what one has...
