I have an AIA M10-B2 and the bolt doesn't want to come out. Seems like its jamming somwhere in the rear of the reciever. I have had it out in the past and it really hasn't been an issue.
Has any one else had this problem? I am tempted to give it a wack with a deadblow hammer but don't want to damage the bolt or the rifle.

Any chance of some good clear pics of the situation?

Oh...have you removed the safety? One screw. That can be an issue if it's buggered up.
 
Safety seems to work, although removing it has entered my mind. I haven't taken any pics.
Picture an Enfield bolt that won't come out and thats what I have. Same type of bolt. Get the front piece in the notch and flip up. In a perfect world it will just slide out.
I have tried depressing the trigger while trying to extract also.
 
Yes I know that. I have had this rifle for a few years.
Had to bang the bolt back into the rifle. Kind of strange.
Only change that I have made to the rifle was to replace the horrible trigger that it came with.

Got one of these.
 
Haven't changed the back sight. Would like to with an Enfield sight, but Ishoot it with a scope most of the time. This last weekend was the first time I shot it with irons. After a few adjustments I was shooting pretty good. Batter than with the scope which surprised me.
