    No4 bolt hangup

    I have a No4Mk1 and the bolt has a bit of a catch when it is first lifted. Something is preventing it from lifting initially and it kind of snaps up when enough force is used. Any ideas on a fix?

    Is the safety assembled correctly? There's part that could be in the way to the smallest degree...

    You hit the nail on the head. I removed the safety, repositioned the part that articulates with the bolt and problem solved. Thank you.
