Hi:
I have a unique (at least to me) cycling problem with my 1910's model 11. It appears that the bolt follows the barrel going into battery instead of staying locked until the carrier raises another shell and trips the bolt release. This is not a cleaning or recoil adjustment problem, but something internal. More confusing is that when I remove the recoil spring and hand cycle by pushing the barrel back, everything works OK. I think I know how the internals work and they seem to be doing the right thing at the right time. I am wondering if anyone out there has had the same problem with this gun or the Savage and Brownings and has found a soluition.
