Help Needed or Suggestions for Gunsmith on the South Side

I have a reassembly problem with a Retay Gordion 12 ga. After reassembly (basic field strip - did not disassemble the bolt or the trigger assembly), the bolt will lock back but when the bolt release is engaged, the bolt will not go forward (unless it is forced). I couldn't see where either the trigger assembly or bolt was reinstalled incorrectly.
I'm wondering if there is a trick or maybe something simple I'm missing. I watched several Retay videos but non addressed my issue.
If anyone has a suggestion or 2 that can help me, I'm all ears. If not, I'll take it to a gunsmith for a fix.
Can someone recommend a gunsmith in the Newnan/Griffin/Fayetteville areas just in case?
Thanks in advance.

sounds like something is out of wack with the recoil spring. are you sure you got the link on the carrier back into the recoil spring system right?

I don't know anything about that shotgun but I watched several videos on Youtube.
If it worked before, I would assume you put it back together wrong.

Take it back apart and study it and try again. Quite possibly ou can fix it.

Full Blown Firearms by the Race Track can fix it.
