CZ 452 Bolt

[Yokel Matt 918]

As my 452 is still quite new i was giving it a good clean and rub down in gun grease to help free-up the action from it post production stiffness. I was cleaning the bolt and, in the process of twisting it, seem to have released the pin or something Its hard to explain but instead of being in the 'open' position, as in when you withdraw the bolt from the action... it is now in the 'closed' position, ie when the bolt is closed in the action. I'm sure there was a click when this happened and the pin looks a little prominant. The bolt handle seems quite 'wobbly' on the bolt tube but i can't seem to re-position it to the open position in order to put the bolt back in the the action.

 

If this makes sense to anyone i would really appreciate a nod on how to sort this.

 

Cheers

Ignore this thread, i've just sorted it. Being stiff it needed more brute force and ignorance than expected to twist it back.

Happens to everyone at one time or another I'd say Local Happened to me with my Sako Quad bolt, I was messing around with the bolt and it went into "fired" position. Bit of elbow grease sorted it out for me, and catching my thumb a few times However, not being familiar with CZ's I'll let some helpful soul come along and give proper advice. Don't panic though, it's fixable
