My manual on my Browning Maxus states explicitly to: "never allow the action to slam closed by pressing the bolt release button without the barrel installed. If the bolt is released forward with the barrel removed, the operating handle will strike the receiver and cause damage." well, when cleaning, I had my hand on it but it went forward though maybe not with quite full speed. I'm an O/U guy with his first auto. It still seems to cycle just fine though I haven't shot it. How would I know if I damaged the receiver? Anything I should look for or should I assume I got lucky as it is still functioning normally. Thanks guys! Never again! :-(
