We finally finished welding up our M53 build and fitting all the parts in it. With the recuperator installed, and after bringing the bolt back (FA), the barrel does not want to come loose and the door doesnt not want to come open. Any ideas what I need to look at adjusting? Edited by Jmspec

Well, its always slightly embarrassing when you wind up answering your own question. It turns out that the recuperator was catching on a bad spot when the bolt was pulled to the rear keeping it from return the barrel forward. Cleaned it up and it cycles now.
