So I was shooting some last night. Went to cock my rifle, and the bolt wouldn't engage. Mag stopped turning. Turns out the detent won't disengage. So talking with my buddy dcorvino, we decided to drill a hole in the plastic mag, I then was able to access the detent with adental pick and remove the mag. Rifle still shoots fine. The detent spring still has pressure, but when I cock the rifle it won't move. Can someone advise?

I want to give a special thanks to CHUCKSTER, for helping me fix my issue and a few more that I didn't know about. He had me call him and for 3 hours, he taught me how to take apart my Sumatra, fix the detent issue, fix my cocking lever not staying in place, and just know that much more about my Korean.
Thanks Chuck.

Well Joe it is my pleasure to help anyone here at GTA if possible, but a real thrill to meet a fellow Sumatra lover. There is just something about them that gets ahold of you...
I don't get here as often as I used to, but I am always available to help.
And hey to you also Mr. Corvino, I think you are a real pistol. I have always enjoyed reading your posts, and am finally learning to just be available to people and to keep some of my personal opinions to myself...
Best regards to you guys,
Chuck
