geriatric Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 (edited) I've just bought an old BSA century, taken it home and removed the bolt so that I could clean the gun. I wiped away the muck from the bolt and lightly lubed. After cleaning the bore I tried to put the bolt back but it wont go go back. When I bought the gun everything seemed OK. Any advice please please. Edited April 21, 2012 by geriatric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapp Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 I dont know the rifle but have you tried holding the trigger in and then putting the bolt in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geriatric Posted April 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Sorted. The bolt has to be in the cocked position before it can be put back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
