    Ishapore 2A bolt question

    When the bolt is in battery and cocked, should the long lug be touching the receiver where the bolt head rides?
    Or should the inside of the bolt handle touch the receiver side first?

    On my 2A the inside of the bolt handle touches the receiver but there is still about 1/16th of an inch between the long lug and the receiver rail. Looks like the bolt could rotate a little farther into battery if a bit of material was removed from inside the bolt handle.
