    Foxmountain,

    Is this a Herter's BSA U9 rifle? If yes, all you have to do is make sure that the rifle is empty, both the chamber and the magazine. Let the muzzle rest on the toe of your shoe, open the bolt but not all the way to the stop then push the trigger forward while gently removing the bolt. It may require a little jiggling at first especially if the lubricant has set up a little with dirt and dust. If it is real sticky then a good cleaning and re-lube is in order.

    Regards.
