Marlin 336

Bolt gets stuck in the open position, a little shake and it's fine. It looks like the catridge lifter is worn to an knife edge and hangs on the receiver on the way up. The gun has been shot A LOT, but was taken care off.
Has anyone run into the same problem.
I'm out of here..Ambein is kicking in fast tonight and I'm turning into a bumbling idiot:p

It is called "THe Marlin Jam" and is common, A new carrier will fix it for a while, or you can check out this page for a cure. http://marauder.homestead.com/files/Marlin94Fix.html
