  1. Trigger Reset...HELP!

    in Saiga .223

    Thanks MSA....I was gonna ask what specific areas I should get polished, but I just saw the video on your website. It looks like that one was polished.

     

    Funny that you said that, because last time and even today the frame of the rifle was hotter than normal. So much that it stood out.

     

    Thanks for everything guys!

     

    If your ever in So Cal email me and Lunch is on me!

     

    Plus you have a life buyer from your website!

    Thanks MSA!..

     

    I actually cycled the bolt real hard a few times and It seemed to be working again THANK GOD!

     

    So I took it to the range and put maybe 50 rounds through it and it worked great! There was one time where it seemed like it wanted to stick but it didn't .

     

    The guy at the range (who is not a gunsmith) said it may just be that it is somewhat new and just breaking in ????

     

    How true could that be?

    Thanks for your patience guys!

     

    OK...I did MSA's test 1-5 and the FCG seems to work.

     

    1. With the bolt, carrier, and recoil spring in the rifle (but the dust cover removed), cock and dryfire the rifle but keep holding the trigger all the way back.

    2. While still fully depressing the trigger, cycle the bolt. When the bolt locks back into battery, observe the position of the hammer. It should be held under the disconnector hook.

    3. Gently release the trigger. The hammer should click as it switches from being held by the disconnector to being held by the sear.

     

    It doesn't do it right off the bat....I have to rock trigger back and fourth a few times with finger before it does swith from the disconnect to the trigger hook/sear.

     

    When I lock the hammer by with the bolt carrier with out holding trigger back it, it works great (Fires everytime).....but when I lock it back as I hold the trigger, it seems to get hung up on the disconnect. After a few times of rocking the trigger back and fourth with my finger, the disconnect allows the hammer slip from the disconnect and be "caught" by the trigger hook, then the next pull fires (or lets hammer go)

     

    HELP!

     

    Again thanks for ALLLL your and patience!!!!

    OK...Ok...I think were on to something here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    1. With the bolt, carrier, and recoil spring in the rifle (but the dust cover removed), cock and dryfire the rifle but keep holding the trigger all the way back.

    2. While still fully depressing the trigger, cycle the bolt. When the bolt locks back into battery, observe the position of the hammer. It should be held under the disconnector hook.

    3. Gently release the trigger. The hammer should click as it switches from being held by the disconnector to being held by the sear.

    When I do this the hammer does not switch to the trigger hook (sear?). It stays held down by the disconnector hook! Leaving a slight gap between hammer and trigger hook.

     

    And then when I gently tap the disconnector hook, it clicks and switches to being held down by the triiger hook. Then I can pull the trigger and it fires!

     

    WHATS NEXT?

    Also the is a spring wrapped around the "pin" directly above the trigger...its short on one side and long on the other and runs along the inside of the rifle ending near the spring that wraps around the pin that holds on the hammer....can that be any part of this?

     

    Any more pics would definitely help too!!!

    Thanks soooo much for your quick replies! Like I said Im still really new with Saiga's so thanks for bearing with me....

     

    I do believe that the acces spin is not trying to move if Im correct. The manual isnt rto helpful but I believe that I am looking at the correct part.

     

    I am in California so my .223 is as stock as they come.

     

    I was only able to get one picture attached because of size….let me know if it helps or if there is a better way to get pics across

    Help!

     

    I took out mt Saiga 223. today and shot maybe a 100 rounds through it, and it worked great. Towards the end of the day the trigger stopped reseting!

     

    It wouldn't reset and seemed really floppy. It did cycle because there was a round in the chamber after it fired, but when you pulled the trigger again nothing happened!

     

    I would pull the charging handle back maybe a 1/4 of an inch and the presto, it would fire the chambered round and then the trigger wouldnt reset again.

     

    I diassembled it, dropped some oil and it would fire two rounds and then start the whole thing with not reseting.....Please HELP!

     

    The rifle is less than a year old and probably has less than 1000 rounds through it. I'm not Saiga savy AT ALL, so I dont know much other than the basic part....(springs and stuff throw me for a loop).
