Mauser Sticky Bolt

Hi guys,

I have a Gustav 1920 Mauser that I fired for the first few times ever this afternoon. The last few rounds, the bolt became a little difficult to open...nothing that I really had to slam a hand on though. I've come across a few threads on this but I don't really understand the causes of this.

Any chance I just had some grit down in the bolt? Now that I'm home and I cleaned the outside of the bolt, etc, it's moving slicker than duck poo.

Most importantly, should I be worried about the safety of this rifle? I'll trash it before risking my face.

Thanks--
