I just purchased this used Marlin 39a circa 1965 and I'm not happy with the hammer and bolt assembly. When the hammer is released to engage the firing pin, the hammer catches on the right side of the bolt. It looks like it has for some time now due to the wear on the side of the hammer and bolt. Is there a part that needs replaced? Does anyone have suggestions to fix this? Anyone ever had the same issue? The hammer does strike the firing pin, it just hits the rear side of the bolt first. Thanks for the help!
