Hey,

My Dad has an old Winchester model 12 shotgun.
It's 16 GA, and is the one you can unscrew the mag
and barrel to break it into two parts.

The problem is, the action bar will catch the bolt,
but when you go to cycle it, the action bar won't
stay hooked into the bolt. It just pops out like when
you go to split the gun in two.

How do I fix it? And what is the procedure for breaking
it into two sections?

Thanks,
Kilroy
