Attention New Members and those new registering! We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username. If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7. Thanks for joining us from the administration.

The bolts in both of my Budapest carbines are hard to open
I do not remember them being that way when I bought them.
I did a prelem cleaning and then had to leave the country on business.
Have taken them out to finish cleaning and find the bolts extremely hard to open.Are they supposed to be greased or oiled?
On another forum a post on mosin bolts said to treat them with Molyfusion and they get slick.
Will that work on a steyr bolt as well or is it wishful thinking.
What procedure do you recommend?

Here is a link to a good series of articles on the Austrian-Mannlicher bolts. This guy seems to have done his homework. Good stuff:
