When I loosen the BAS a turn or so, the distance between the bolt handle lug and rear baffle increases and allows me to open and close the bolt smoothly. When I tighten the BAS like it should be, the bolt handle lug and rear baffle cam ride very closely on one another and that's where it gets stuck. There is no issue with the positioning of the bolt handle like a few other people have mentioned. It is mated up with the 2 protrusions on the rear end of the bold body and does not turn like thomae suggested. The bolt handle does not move when I tighten the BAS, but rather it is pushed forwards towards the baffle. There is NO issue with the lift; just with the closing of the bolt. Also, the headspacing is not an issue either as I had this problem even when the barrel was off the receiver. I will try to put the factory bolt handle back on to see if that fixes the problem. I will be back home tomorrow evening and I will take some pictures of everything. I will also make a video and post it on youtube that shows exactly what is going on and maybe that will help some.
