"Have fun with them!"

Thanks. I have had them apart for cleaning. I have noticed on one of them that if I don't have the fore-end screws set right, the bolt will lock up on me. Do you have any knowledge of this?

Don, I don't have hands-on experience with the Mini but I have an Armscorp M14 and it sounds like maybe something in the stock is interfering with the op rod. If you purchased this rifle in a local shop I would take it in and have it checked by a gunsmith. If it's what I think it is it won't be hard to fix.
