Swedish Mauser Bolt assembly.

[aprayinbear]

What am I doing wrong? I recently purchased a Swedish 1909 mauser and love to shoot her. Inadvertently I opened the bolt with the safety in the middle position, found that the safety assembly would turn. Re tightened, closed the bolt and suddenly the rifle wouldn't fire (it had been shooting perfectly.) Looks as thought the firing pin doesn't move fully forward.

I went online and found several assembly pictorials, but I still haven't been able to figure it out.

Please

I think it's just something simple that I'm overlooking.......
