Mosin Nagant issue help!

[Cuerno_de_Chivo]

So I went to the range and shot about 30 rounds through my Mosin. Then all of a sudden as I was chambering a new round the bolt slipped and fell to the ground. Not sure if it's the bolt but the trigger wont lock in place. It just slips and the trigger doesn't reset. The only way the bolt stays in place inside the Mosin is if i manually lift the trigger but as soon as I let go it let's go of the bolt as well. I can't even dry fire it. Any ideas what's wrong?

are you missing the roll pin for your trigger ?

I think you might need to buy:

The pin is still there but I think i found the problem. Not sure what this is called but it's in between the trigger I believe and it looks like it snapped. This is the only gun I haven't really taken apart and know it inside out so the parts are sort of unfamiliar to me.

Yes! That's what looks like snapped. What is that part called?

Shop before you buy, prices vary greatly. The last time I needed one a guy on a forum sent me one -- he's a very nice man.

Thanks so much man. I was destroying steel when the bolt flew off. Was a little bummed but hopefully it's back spitting lead soon. Thanks again!

That would do it! hah

Take care undoing the screw that holds the sear on.
Make sure that you have the proper size screw driver as these are sometimes mega tight and very easy to slip out of and mar if you use an undersized screw driver.
Might also help to soak it with penetrating oil.

Hope yours is easier to remove then that!

This one is a bit cheaper

Dunno about shipping.
Numrich might be easier if you do the trick by call after hours and get the free/cheaper shipping code

This one is the cheapest with free shipping if you do ebay...

I would just get a finnish m39 sear for 15 bucks. Great investment for lightening trigger pull

i had the same problem. the screws were loose. tighten both the action screws, open up the mosin, and by the trigger is a screw, that puts tension on the trigger so it can lock into place, tighten that screw up. that will fix it all

-from a mosin owner that went through the same problem

just tighten all the screws, and problem solved..

It pays to read the hole thread before posting... OP posted a photo of his trigger spring snapped in half...

Best get a Finn tow stage

O dam there is your problem lol that is one hella snapped trigger spring i didnt even know it could snap like that . replace that and your gun will be fine and a lil tip put a thin washer under the new one and it will give you a clean trigger pull and lessen trigger pull

Every so often you hear of a sear breaking. Not real common but it does happen. I've never experienced it.

This is the only gun I haven't really taken apart and know it inside out so the parts are sort of unfamiliar to me.

If you can do AK's (not all that complex itself) the Mosin is several times simpler and easier, as im sure you have discovered.
