I had a bit of time and my bullet guide arrived from Dinzag, so I installed it yesterday. marking / drilling / tapping.. all went without a hitch.
then I put the bolt back on, but no spring and hand cycled it. it seemed to hang just a touch when going into battery, but that only lasted a few cycles then smoothed out.
then I worked on the mag catch.
then tested the to see if rounds properly fed off my std AK mag. the first couple weren't exactly smooth going in. but getting them to come out was a bear. the bolt hung up right at the beginning of rearward travel.
I had to put a bit of muscle to it to get the round free.
the next round ejected easier but still had a good bit of initial friction. I havent actually fired it yet, just hand cycled the action. it only has this hang with a round in place. with no rounds, the bolt moves freely.
my question is, is there a spot I can take a file to so the bolt cycles to the rear without the initial hang?
