Getting an A$ bolt into an LCD

[rob_evanson]

Right I've just bought an A4 bolt, which it says on the packaging will fit into an LCD, IR3,Speed and A4. Mines an LCD. The bolt fits into the breech ok but when I go to shut it, it won't quite shut fully. When I investigate why it looks like the bolt pin (the thing that stick out of the bolt and links it to the ram) is too long. When I compare it to my stock bolt pin it's about 2->3 mm to long. Do I have to screw or hammer it in a bit more or what. Help Please!

you sure it isn't hitting the bolt
try backing the bolt back a bit

This one's quite easy, the bolt pin needs to be pulled out, and there will be some swarf (crap) in the hole. Clean this out and refit the pin. Did this earlier on one of mine, solved the problem.
