Hey guys, this might be a dumb question (or a dumb asker).
When loading a clip into the M1, should pushing the clip down result in the bolt and op rod/bolt moving forward (chambering a round) or should I have to load the clip then manually operate the op rod handle? When loading my M1, pushing down the clip releases the action, frequently with my thumb in the way. Is something out of alignment or is this normal?
Thanks,
