Help with raider

[tigerkat]

I've had the same problem with 2 of the newer raiders, cocking forward and back is difficult and sounds like something could break. I think that it has to do with the slam fire piece.  When you cock the gun back a slanted piece on the bolt sled is supposed to engage with a slanted piece on the slam fire piece and catch in place. Then when you pull the trigger the slamfire slanted piece comes up again. but when I cock my gun back the slanted piece on the slamfire doesn't engage and then the piece sticks up and scrapes against the bolt sled making it almost impossible to prime the gun. I wonder if it could be a design flaw on some of the newer raiders because my older raiders are fine.

Ok, I fixed the problem I glued in the metal bar where it attaches to the boltsled and that semmed to fix it.
