[QUOTE="BillR, post: 621421, member: 462"] If you check the screw on the back of the bolt safety and see if it goes straight up and down or is turned off to one side. It needs to be straight up and down to the witness mark or it can cause a bolt to close hard on the Mosin Nagant. They also close hard to begin with :) but check that and see if it is the problem. Also the springs in the extractor are super tough and I have had a few that just would not slip over the case head and would not let the bolt close. Gun smith took care of that problem by shortening up the spring. [/QUOTE]
