I know without pictures it's hard to analyze things, looking at 180-Serial, Mini-14. The Rifle is clean and dry.
The bore has a frosted look, not pitted like an old rifle but it actually looked like it was parkerized on the inside. I pulled my bore snake through it a few times just to see if it would clean up some. But it did nothing.
Also the action wouldn't slam into battery, you had to push it the last ½" to 3/8" or so to lock it in.
Then charging handle would just pop out when you would pull it back.
Personally I think it was just reassembled incorrectly, because the trigger group didn't look like it was seated correctly in the stock.
I asked if I could break it down to inspect it, but the guy said he didn't have the "time" to let me. He didn't seem to know anything about it, or was playing dumb
Any ideas on the barrel issue or why the bolt would close correctly without actually having it in your hands?
