I just looked at your pics and the bolt looks like it's in the removal position , but if the trigger group is still in the rifle it might cause it to jam up . Is the trigger group still in the rifle ? If so remove the trigger and see if this helps .

I was addicted to the hokey pokey , but I turned myself about .
Okay. That's nothing. Just grab the roller and jiggle it forward and upward and it will become unstuck.
You don't really need any new tools (except maybe a gas cylinder wrench). You have a field tool kit in the butt of the rifle stock.
I'm in North York and can give you a hand if you like
BTW, Barney (TacticalTeacher) has an M14 clinic in Port Elgin tomorrow at 9am. I wonder if it's too late to join

Okay, I got the issue fixed and the rifle back together. It wasn't hard at all! I did managed to pull the trigger while trying to put the trigger group back into the stock and the tigger guard hammered down on my thumb. My thumb smarts a bit but overall, the exercise was fun!
Odd Shot: Thanks so much for the link to the Clinic. I've been to the site and will be sure to contact them for their next clinic.
I would like to sincerely thank everyone for all the help and tips!
Rock n roll!

Hi ArchiesBunker, I hope you have managed to strip down your rifle and found the problem. As mentioned there is a lot of good info on the web. What I have found helpful is to strip it down in a logical order and place all the parts in order that they were removed. Reinstallation is a lot easier this way, as the bolt and op rod can be a little "awkward" until you get used to them. Have fun.
