Alright, I screwed up. I have a Model 670(no frills Model 70), and I pulled the bolt out to clean the gun. Forgot to put the safety on intermediate, and now the bolt will not go all the way into the receiver. Any help, ideas or opinions would help. TIA

Hook the sear on the edge of your wooden bench and pull until it cocks the striker and locks, the bolt should now go right back in the receiver

yeah thats something I fear sometimes when I clean my bolt. I always have to read the booklet on which position to have it in.

+1. On a good note, you will only make THAT mistake once.;)
