Well the other day my pride and joy longshot with front gun integrated, nf spring and ar removals started acting up, it took a bit more force and 3 tries or so to charge it. The next day i ran into an even worse problem, the charging handle ended up staying back and the bolt was forward so I just got the motivation to crack it open and the bolt sled apparently broke on me. So now I have to ask after finding the closest problem somebody else posted was their sled broke the mount on the bolt, has anybody else had this problem and how might i go about fixing it?

Please help me!! this gun is my pride and joy and my first real mod I'd hate to see it die this horrible death. Thanks in advance.

I've had to open up my Longshot too many times, so I might be able to help you out. But pictures would really be helpful with something like this.

I had it. You placed the bolt tooth in the worng postion, or the plunger had been placed wrong.
Buy a new one.
Ask Forsaken Angel or Cartoon or check my thread about it.

You placed the dart tooth and the lip of it in the wrong place.

Supergglue, JB weld and plexiglass.

It should fix it, but I've never seen something that severe
My condolences to you and your gun
