So I got an 858 tactical 2 out of one of the first batches, it ran grate for a while but eventually developed the gremlins. So I call the supplier who has no problem sending me the parts to fix it. Well I put it in but there is something wrong the bolt is hanging up on the tab highlighted in the picture 1. It is hitting the bolt picture 2. I need to know what I have done wrong or if it is just a fit issue can this tab be ground down a bit? The bolt will close if let fly from full cocked but it is defiantly hitting and if I cycle the rifle it binds at the point in picture 3. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

well when i look at what causes the gremlin in the first place i see that if i take this down it will cause the same issue any one have any idea what i should try ?
 
Does your rifle cycle properly when you shoot it?

The bolt is meant to hit that tab, hold the trigger down and then press the tab that you circled, it will reset the sear :)

everything is fine as long as you have the wire spring installed in the trigger and your bolt closes when you let it fly .

do not ground down the tab cos that is how the gremlin begins . what i do is polish the carrier ramp where the tab comes in contact with , use a very fine paper.

and i always put a bit of grease on the ramp and tab to reduce friction , less friction is less wear on the tab so less chances of the apperance of the dredded gremlin.
