[QUOTE="Catt57, post: 4028807, member: 34578"] I have a 62A, but as it is working perfectly, I don't really want to disassemble it to get the bolt out. Plus there are some internal differences between the 62 and 62A anyway. (For example, the 62 uses a flat spring for the hammer while the 62A uses a coil spring.) Make sure you are looking at parts for the correct model. It is also hard to tell without seeing it in person, but I did find this about the 62 (and 62A). Maybe it will help. A small, angled extension on the side of the firing pin is what locks the slide action. When the firing pin is too the rear, the bolt is locked. When it is forward as in firing, it is unlocked so you can pump it again. It also locks the bolt shut while the hammer is in the safety or full cock notch to keep it fully shut & locked during handling & hunting. [/QUOTE]
