1915 SMLE bolt problem

[Alan de Enfield]

Thats a copyright statement by PL Alan De Enfield.........

But I love it "a sausage in an alleyway" that ranks with some of the best aussie slang out there?

If it is the Sausage symptom does this infer that the bolt race and bolt body are excessively worn and does this affect the lock up. TIA

I remember PL saying something similar but couldn't recall exactly what it was.

I have a No1 Mk3* that the bolt is a "bit loose" & 'wobbly' but locks up properly with no movement.
