Winchester Model 97, 12 ga, solid frame, DOM 1931. After a shot is fired and the empty shell extracted, the bolt binds (hangs-up) at the back of the receiver approx 90% of the time.
How do I fix the problem?
TIA

What about the loading gate underneath.Is it free or binding?

it sounds like the boss on the slide arm (from the for-end) is worn and is allowing the bolt to stay to deep in the frame you may have to weld and file the boss to take up slack
the first step to getting old, is to live through the stupid stuff you did when you were young !!
