Jason,
Before you go shipping the bow is it possible for you to post a couple of pictures of the problem area? I'm having a problem understanding what you mean when you say the bolt and washer extend beyond the riser. Maybe you're just not explaining it right or I'm not interpretting it right. In either case pictures might make it clearer to understand just what the problem is. If we can sort it out it might save you the cost of shipping.
