Hey ya'll I bought a mosin nagant 91/30 a few months back put about a 100 or so rounds through it, now when I load it with all five rounds either by hand or with a stripper clip, the bolt wont close, keeps pushing the top bullet nose down any idea what might be causing this? worn out leaf spring?
Any help is appriciated, I love this ol' gal and I want her to function, can't take 'er out shootin' if she ain't workin'

Could be a weak follower spring. Or the tip of the spring may have broken off? Do you have any other Mosin mag spring/latch assemblies that you could try in the existing magazine to see if the problem persists?
