You gave away a Nagant because the bolt was sticky?mostly the bolt.... not too smooth... decided not to fool around with it..
Did no one tell you that you need to use anger and have a shot or two of vodka to make it work properly?
In seriousness, Mosin Nagant bolts are well-known for their stiff bolts. When I cycle my Mosin, I literally slap the bolt back in place with the palm of my hand.
If you're telling the truth and gave it away because of a stiff bolt, the guy who took it from you probably knew about it, and is to this day telling his friends how "the guy at the range thought this gun was crap, and now I have a free tent pole/club/pigsticker/anti-nazi cannon."
