In last Sunday heavily i put my replica on table, later i note that my Bolt Catch - open half way or some time did not open, when i got back to the home I've been trey to find way to fix it but couldn't find any problem, however i put some silicone oil to the Bolt Catch and to the Charging Handle as well but nothing change, so does anyone face this issue before and know how to solve it?
Note that i can easily push the Bolt Catch all the way back in my finger with no problem..

Maybe some internal friction of some sort. Have you disassembled it yet? If not try and do so if you're comfortable with it and look for some parts that may look like they are interfering with the bolt. It could be some sand or a slightly bent part inside but yuo'll only find out what it is when you open it up and see from where I can see. Also try to look for any obstacles that may prevent the bolt from moving all the way forward and little bits of metal or plastic that might have been moved in the way of the mechanism when you put it down with force.
 
You're alright i just found some dust between the (Dust Cover Retainer and the Charging Handle) now it's back to work normally. thank you for helpful tip bro!
