M305 bolt problem?

[D3vin]

Not sure if there's something seriously wrong with my 305 bolt, but it moves/rattles back and forth exactly like an sks bolt.

Inner spring problem?

thanks.

If you mean it rattles around when its in the closed position on an empty chamber... That's totally normal. In fact, it needs to have at least some movement to ensure that each lug is taking it share of the recoil.

sorry, to clarify meant the firing pin.

Also totally normal, firing pin is free floating. You want it to rattle.

Ah didnt realize the 305 had a free floating firing pin. Thanks for curing my ignorance lol.
