    Dang I just got this gun back from you guys about a month ago but It sounds like shipping it back is about my only choice. Could you have Vicki e-mail me another shipping label. Thanks alot for your help I really do appreciate it

      Really? did we service it for a gas issue or something? See if you can get it moved back over the slot, either by reaching into the ejection port and pulling back on the bolt, or from inside the hole itself.

      Give Vicki a call, and explain the problem, and she will fire off a new label to you. 740 942 3175

            Glad you got it figured out.

            Next question, did you put the spring in backwards?

              I'm not sure. How would I tell that?

                Been working on this same problem for a while and just figured it out, so I wanted to list what I did for the next poor sap that runs into it!

                -Take the top cover off
                -pull back on the handle
                -looking in from the left side you can see the top of the bolt catch, I used a small Allen head screw driver to push it back down threw the slot, then grabbed it with a pair of pliers.

                I will post pictures later.

                Just need to figure out how to get the damn spring back on the bolt catch!

                    You could try using a punch to knock out the trigger pin enough to let the bho lever free. Place the receiver over a block of wood with a hole cut in it and use a 1/8" punch
