Mosin Bolt Reassembly
Hey all,
I'm having issues putting my bolt back together to get the firing pin to stick through the hole. Does anyone know the firing pin length? I'm starting to think it was cut and that I'm fighting a losing battle. |

For firing pin length, don't you have a Mosin tool? It's that funny looking tool with the loop and notches that usually comes in the ammo pouches with your Mosin. One of those notches is the correct firing pin protrusion length, it's been quite a while for me but it should be between .075" and .095". in length.

Are you decocking the bolt? You need to twist the bolt head, connector & cocking piece 90 degrees to the left when looking from the rear.

Yeah I watched a video on it, is it possible that when I'm getting it to line up with the back end of the bolt I have it to far up? It shouldn't be recessed though right? The only time the pin gets through the hole is when it's about 2 cms recessed into the hole.
