Having some time on my hands, I removed my bolt!! The bolt must have uncocked as I heard it click. Now, I want to replace the bolt but, it won't go back in while uncocked.

What do I do? I tried recocking the bolt but it does not catch. Do I have to put a piece of wood into the bolt to hold it cocked? Also, my bolthead does not have the screw threads like the 1910. Thanks
