I attempted to search for a previous thread on this issue, but came up blank.
I'm attempting to break down my new to me Ruger 10/22 and have removed the stock and trigger group as well as the large 3rd pin that limits how far the bolt can come back. Now the problem is that even with the bolt pulled all the way back it's about .5 millimeter from clearing the rail that holds it down. I've been wrestling with this thing for over an hour but can't get it to clear it so it can be lifted out.... Anyone been here or have any idea what might be going on? Thanks a ton for any advice. This thing is driving me nuts!
