After re-sealing and springing the above rifle it is not possible to get the sledge to slide when in the stock, outwith the stock it moves, I am not sure where I have gone wrong as the pins came out without a fuss and all has gone back the same. All was cleaned and re-lubed with FWB grease and some very light oil.
Any thoughts would be appreciated

Hi
I have the same rifle as you. I encountered the same problem when i last reassembled it. My rifle performs flawlessly now but didn't ( no recoiless action) and these were the things i checked.
1/ don't oil the pins. i used a smear of moly grease, but fwb grease should be fine.
2/ make sure the sled is in the forward position when reassembling.
3/ make sure the cocking lever is in the undone position.
4/ look very carefully at how the back pin and tang mesh
