To remove the bolt from a J.C. Higgins shotgun model 538-1101, first ensure the shotgun is unloaded and pointed in a safe direction. Open the action to expose the bolt assembly, then locate the bolt release mechanism, usually found at the rear of the receiver. Depress the release and carefully pull the bolt out from the rear of the receiver. Always refer to the owner's manual for specific instructions and safety precautions.
