If you watch this video, the bolt should release as the clip latches. You may have to push the bolt home if the bolt doesn't supply enough force to strip off the first round.

However, I would consider an M1 to be malfunctioning if you can shake or bump the operating rod off of it's catch. It should be the movement of the follow that does this.
