I bought a 10/22 yesterday, took it the range, Brought it home and cleaned it. Pins in the trigger assembly came out. After finally rebuilding the assembly, the 10 shot rotary mag won't fit in the slot anymore. Anyone have any ideas other than I'm an idiot?
Are you putting it in backwards?
Try locking the bolt back then inserting it?

Tried it, no luck.

Try completely disassembling it again and reassembling it correct, maybe you accidentally messed with the mag catch
Look for assembly errors around the magazine release. There are many many youtube videos on this. If worst comes to worse, any good gunsmith with fix it for you probably free. But youtube is your friend here.

By the way, you are not an idiot at all. No real gun owner out there has lived very long without having a hell of a time getting a gun back together at one time or another. If your really want to become a master of gun puzzles take a look at what it takes to put the trigger assembly of a Ruger Mark-II back together.

This.
I just put a rear mount/scope on my VZ and I found a random inch-ish long pin on the table afterwards. I have no fucking idea where it came from, and I can't fucking figure it out.
thanks for the videos! i'm going to reassemble it again here in an hour. think I see what I did wrong.
So the magazine wont reach all the way to the mag latch plunger. I resetting the bolt in in receiver. From what I see It's almost like the whole trigger assembly is to far forward.

I put the whole thing back together without the bolt the magazine fits perfectly. So it has to be the bolt. any advice. I have tried my damnedest to make sure the bolt it up as far as it goes.
Check the magazine itself for defects. Dents, burrs, the spring or round seat?
Check the magazine catch
Check for any flakey or shiny bits of metal,
I'm sorry i can't help more without actuly being there, but it's what I would do if someone came in and described what you said.

Just figured it out! The ejector lever was upside down.

Having parts left over mean that you've made it more efficient. Good work,anon!
