Hello, I am new here and recently purchased my first mosin, a 91-30. I barely got around to cleaning it today and I had trouble getting the bolt re-assembled but I finally did it, I think.

Anyway, when I put the bolt back onto the rifle, the trigger stopped working. I can work the bolt and everything but the trigger dosent catch or something. It just hangs there and goes back and forth.

I dont know what to do. I cant get the bolt off cause the trigger has to work for me to pull it off, and I cant get to the trigger or anything.

I would greatly appreciate any help with this.

Thank you.

H.J, did you get this straightened out?

Yeah I did, thanks.

It turns out that while cleaning it, the trigger pin fell out, which I hear from other mosin owners, happens allot.

Getting the scews off to dissasemble the gun was a bitch though. Had to get a small screwdriver and unscrew it from a weird angle.

But finally figured it out and I ordered some stripper clips and a replacement trigger pin. They should come in monday.
