hello,

Today a Fired for the first time my m1917 after a gunsmidt told me it was safe to fire. At first the round did not enter very well in the chamber, after opening the bolt and closing it again the round enterd the chamber. I pulled the trigger, the gun fired and I cheked the target to see if the round had left the gun, with it did. Now I wanted to open the bolt and I cant turn it al the way up. After closing it a few times it turned all the way up but the round stayed in the chamber as I pulled the bolt backwards. I pushed the bolt back to the closed possition with using force but now its again not turing enough to pull it back. What can I do, What would the problem be?

The received is stamped m1917 and the bolt for me is the correct one...

thx a lot for any help.
