Sako bolt problem

[HighlandLofts]

One of the local pawn shops has a decent damp 222 rifle at a reasonable price, but when you pull the bolt bact to eject the empty case the bolt comes out of the gun.

Would that be a easy, inexpensive fix?

Sounds like the bolt stop. What model ?

Make sure the bolt guide is rotated to the ejection port side and not the bolt release side or it won’t engage the bolt release and bolt will fall out. Common mistake when reassembling. Could also be the bolt stop spring is broken.
