Hello, 

 

as I am looking over my 1892 I noticed, when the bold is closed I can push it a little bit more closed. 

It feels like it’s been pushed against the ejector spring. 

Is this correct? 

How much play does the bolt have?

I don’t have the right go and no go gauges at home right now, but how much headspace is acceptable for a 32-20? 

Primers look good just the big dent from the black powder firing pin.

 

Thanks

 

David
