1943 fresh clean up and oil, Mosin Nagant 91/30 making noise

[jmichelin84]

Hello all, I'm coming to you all with a strange issue, I stripped, scrubbed, oiled my bolt for my Mosin Nagant and I'm having a sound, it's sounds like a TING when the rifle is either dry fired or a snap cap, I used a fired shell from a buddy's mosin, seeing I didn't have any on hand, and now there's a ting I dunno what it could be, any advice or ideas?

I expected someone would say: '' If you shoot a real ammo, you will not hear it.''

To be honest, I expected it too, and even a dry fire i hears it, never did before LOL

The "ting" is the firing pin hitting the inside of the bolt head. It's normal and nothing to be worried about.
