Not laughing. Not judging either JD

My Dad used to use lipstick to mark lambs when doing the lambing beat.
Used to buy Dick Millar the chemist in Mangakino old stock.
Worked a treat.

I thought of that too lol,
Didn't have any on hand though, probably would of worked better than the white correction pen I used,
Will be taking the firearm to fssprecision tomorrow so hopefully he can figure out what the issue is, if he finds something I'll definitely update the thread with the answer.

Looks like the issue is sorted thanks to @Fssprecision,
The issue pretty much came down to general wear on the rifle, have had the hammer built up with weld so that it interfaces with the bolt and is working as it should now (along with a deep clean)
seemingly the reason it works with the stock off is that it allows you to squeeze the tangs in and engage the trigger deeper, however with the stock on the tangs are held at their correct distance apart which stops the bolt pushing the hammer down enough to cock it.
Looking forward to having the rifle back in hand and getting some black powder through it.

make sure you clean it extra well when you do that..... great to hear it has been sorted by another of the forum genuine good fellas.
