You could try to disassemble it and see if anything is broken.

Also, is the bolt lift a problem with an empty chamber or only when firing?
Its a problem on a empty chamber, and I would imagine even when firing. I just got it today, so I haven't got to the range yet.

Do you know of a guide/website on how to disassemble the bolt?

Oh, and thanks for the help :)
