Hmmm, that is a pickle, Dad. Sorry to hear that. Generally the TriStike gets rave reviews for its mechanical reliability. If the breech is truly empty, and the bolt is stuck in the forward position, it's probably a lock/mech malfunction and returning it is your best option, especially if it's brand new.
