It should be as far back as possible and a small hole should be visible just infront of it. If not slide it all the way back and secure it there by running some duct tape infront of it. This piece tends to wander, and after moving it to where it should be fixed all the issues with my gun, including the bolt catch not engaging.

Hope that helps!
Yeah the follower nub is okay, I even tried stretching the spring to make it pop up quicker lol, which looks like the problem.

Do you mean the white piece over the black cylinder running inside the bolt? That's the only white piece on mine that I see. If it matters, this is a closed chamber system, so if you are referring to an open chamber bolt there are bound to be some big differences in the mechanism.

Update: the bolt stop function works with the slightest bit of pressure on the bottom of the magazine. Even inverting the gun is enough to get the bolt stop up far enough/quick enough.

EDIT: My safety also has something up with it, it allows me to select safe even when the hammer is down. This is a gen4 AWSS so i don't think it should be like this, but I'm not sure.
