This invention relates to rifle bolt mechanisms, and more particularly to a manually operated type having an improved construction for maximum strength, ease of operation and minimum of wear. A firing pin is housed within the bolt and is actuated simultaneous with and responsive to the unlocking of the bolt by means of a plurality of cams and cam followers spaced symmetrically about the axis of the firing pin. The ball is utilized to act as the engaging means between the cocking piece connected to the firing pin and the
