I don't know anything about SKS's, but when the pin on my revolver got stuck I disassembled the thing to the point that I could get the cylinder out and pushed the pin back with a screwdriver. I then took it out and filed down where I thought it was catching.
>>

>>
>>29324829

I think I'm going to soak it in some mineral spirits or maybe soak it in some break cleaner.
>>
>>29325172
is it cosmoline that making it stick? if so, mineral spirits is great for that.
>>
I got a vz52 rifle sitting in my safe. I can't get the outer butt plate off because 60 year old communist cosmoline has turned solid in it.

I put a heat gun to it but it barely started melting when it started smoking.
>>
>>29324829
Try a mixture of ATF and acetone as a lube to free it up
>>
>>29324948

It's a 52/57 you dumb cunt.
>>
>>29325243
looks like a snub-nosed shotgun to me.
>>
>>29325187
I'm not exactly sure what is making it stick. I'm pretty sure it fouling from corrosive ammo.
>>
>>29325266
Is it a FAMAS?
>>
>>29325294
corrosive ammo? welp....good luck. thats not good to hear. how badly is the barrel rusted?
>>
>>29325158
Seconded.
Kroil is a miracle worker
>>
>>29324829
>>firing pin stuck as shit.
>>wat do?

>>
PB Blaster or good ol' WD-40.
>>
>>29324894

you've now got a ten round burst, how does it feel?
>>
>>29324829
Hit it with CLP yet? Might break down any rust you have in there.

Take the pin assembly out and soak it in clp. Worth shot if you're already trying boiling.
>>
>>29324829
Submerge BCG/whatever with firing pin in penetrating oil/rust solvent. Give it some light taps after a day or so, maybe some taps and more submergence.
Failing that use an electrosonic cleaner or use electrolysis maybe.
If that doesn't work chances are you aren't using enough force and bought a lot of equipment you will use on surplus down the line anyway.
>>
>>29324829
Yeah man SKS rifles get that problem alot because of cosmeline build up, all you have to do is put the bolt assembly in a gallon pot of water with about 1/4 cup of hoppes 9# and boil it for about 30 minutes.
