Was just looking at my newly acquired CMP Garand, and I noticed that the bolt was hard to pull back. Upon closer inspection and comparing with another Garand I have, I noticed that as you pull back on the op-rod, the bolt does not start to lift, but comes back some then lifts. This makes pulling back the bold a little "sticky". Almost as if it is about to jam. My other Garand, as soon as you apply reward pressure to the op-rod, the bolt starts to lift. Worn op-rod? bad bolt? Normal operation for some Garands?
