New to aks just got mine. My question is when I pull the charging handle back Slowly it won’t go forward it just stops a bit. But if I pull it harder and let it go it goes into battery. Is this normal with aks?
 
Yes, as it gets more use the action will loosen up.

If your cycling it full on and it stops then you have an issue.
If your delicately cycling the action and it wants to give you a little resistance to where is stops you might need to just shoot it more.

It’s brand new so haven’t shot it yet
 
Normal, the hammer rides on the underside of the bolt.
It's possible to get the bolt to stick open but... don't trust that, as it can still shut on it's own.

Certain AK manufacturers have a bolt hold open cutout on their safety. Those are fine to use but not really practical in my experience.

My Serbian M92 AK pistol has the cutout on the safety.
