Ok, I'm officially a dumba$$. After 8 years of professionally carrying M-16's/M-4's, I managed to mess up my new AR.
I took apart my new Oly Arms AR and found that the firing pin retaining pin wouldn't go back in properly. So, I removed the retaining pin and firing pin in order to replace the retaining pin. However, I forgot that the cam pin would rotate without the firing pin there to hold it steady. So, the cam pin is now turned, causing the bolt to get stuck, not allowing me to disassemble the rifle to replace the retaining pin and firing pin.
So, what can I do, short of taking it to a 'smith, to remedy the problem?
