I would show you my GSG-5 but it's screwed up yet again!!!! sick of the damn thing. The working parts are stuck back. Think I'll just punt it for spares/repairs but suppose I may have to get it moving before I can do that. sign01

Take the stock off and on a solid surface whack the rifle on it. Bolt should come forward. When you get the working parts out, check the recoil spring guides. These can come out a bit, cause the bolt to come back pi$$ed and get jammed.

Only know this because it happened to a mates and this is what I did for him to sort it.....
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Bad time to suggest that you should have bought a Spikes or better still a CMMG?

You live and learn mate kukkuk :run:

I reckon I've put over 10 thousand rounds through my GSG and it keeps on ticking.....
