A firearm is disclosed. The firearm can include an upper receiver that includes a bolt. The bolt can include at least one displaceable biasing member that is configured to bias the bolt in a forward state when the at least one biasing member is in an initial state. The bolt can also include a locking wedge that is configured to bias the at least one displaceable biasing member in the initial state. The at least one displaceable biasing member is configured to be displaced from the initial state to a displaced state when a sufficient amount of force is exerted on the at least one displaceable biasing member from the bolt so that the bolt can transition from the forward state to a backward state.
