mossberg emailed me again and said no i could not send just the bolt, they said they need the whole gun to test fire and check for flaws, but if i post a pic anybody could tell the shell ejector claw is missing off the bolt, theres no way i can afford to send the whole gun in to them. i told them sorry to waste there time but i cant do that. hopefully i can take it to pasco gun sports and they can fix it. but should i post a pic of my bolt and see what you guys think? and i also checked the barrel where the shell goes in, its smooth i put a hot shell in and it doesnt hang up and even a spent shell doesnt hang up..
