Hey Folks,
As some of you may know, my brother gave me an old model 12, 20 gauge for Christmas. Needless to say I'm happy as pigs in poop!
Got home today and field stripped the gun to give it a cleaning, and man was it dirty! Anyway, came apart w/o issue, cleaned everything up and proceeded to put everything together. Try as I may, I can not get the bolt retainer bar into the locked position, i.e. can't get the front most tab to slide into the locked position (see the picture). I'm guessing there's a trick to it and am hoping one of you fine members can pass along some pointers.
Thanks in advance!
