Gentlemen,
I'm having a recurring issue with my beefy L61R (AV bolt shroud) .300 WM. It seems the bolt guide slipped in and locked the bolt - sent it to the gunsmith and he might have broken something in the disassembly because it has happened again. A couple of further conversations ensued where he tells me the bolt guide is not an essential piece of the bolt and I can safely fire without it, alas, I'm not sure that's the case.
Attached a couple of pics of the parts. Kindly chime in with your expertise.
Cheers,
Ricardo.
