    As I understand this, Savage uses two different bolt designs and I don't know enough about this to identify which one this is.
    Will someone clarify this for me?

    The one it would have to be to come apart (multiple pieces):


    The style that we are starting to see in some production 110 models.(I believe this is an axis but the 110 is very similar)More like a one piece.
    The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.

    The answer is inside the bolt. If the cocking piece became separated from the pin, it will have spring tension on it. You can simply rotate the cocking piece pin away from the detent, and if it stays up, that means it has separated from the main pin. For what reasons you won't know until it is disassembled. It's a freak occurance anyway you look at it.
