Hello. I would like some opinions on the link on my 1958 Model 94. As you can see in the pictures, it sits proud of the bottom of the receiver when the bolt is closed and the shape of the link does not follow the curve of the bottom of the receiver. It looks to me that it needs to be bent slightly to follow that receiver curve. Does this seem normal to you guys? Should I attempt to bend it slightly? Thanks

Looks bent to me. If it got bent it should be able to be straightened.
