I've got a enfield-2a1 I've had for several years with an issue I haven't resolved yet.
Happens about every 7th round out of ten, that the bolt will begin to push the round forward and somehow it gets pointed above the chamber and gets stuck. The bolt digs into the case, scrapes a little brass, I let it back, jiggle it loose, load and continue to fire.
I was thinking it was a magazine issue, like maybe the spring was a little weak and somehow it'd get started and then pushed down toward the rim of the round eventually pointing it diagonally until it got stuck.
Anyone have any ideas?
