A slit opening/closing arrangement including an abutment member to abut against a rotatable bolt once the rotatable bolt is rotated in a second direction beyond a first open position such that upon abutment between the rotatable bolt and the abutment member, further rotation of the rotatable bolt in the second direction increases the gap of the slit of the hollow chamber to provide an extended open position to allow the end of the rifle barrel to be accepted less restrictively into the hollow chamber.
