WEll I got my new extractora and hammer and installed them. Now I have the issue of the tigger not cocking now. HTe action moves like it is supposed to bet the tigger does not set fo firing. I took it back apat and there is a very little spring on the trigger linkage that is not hooked to anything but the linkage at one end. Anyone have an exploded view of the trigger assembly of are familiar enough to help me out here?? Little help please.
 
That little spring contacts to the reciever to reset the trigger.
Please read here for the issue that you might be having;

www.rimfirecentral.com. Go to remington,sub-forum 597. They have videos and tutorials on any 597 mod you could want to do.
You may want to ensure that your linkage between the trigger and hammer sear is bending the right direction. I believe it is supposed to break upwards. I know from personal experience.
 
THANKS THE LINKAGE WAS DROPPED!!!!!!!!! Works great now guys thanks. Yes I did the extractor too, I cannot wait to shoot it this weekend. I have a thousand rounds in case I am in the mood!!!!!!!!!!! hahahah
 
The rear linkage was correct but the front linkage/sear was down slightly unless you meant checking the rear and front linkages. One can be flipped without the other, it is kind of a cazy setup to have 2 sets of linkage like this but that is what I have to work with. The rear linkage can be droped but the front can stil be in place or vice versa on the 597's.

Works fine now, lets see if my ejection issue is solved now. I have an exection issue with all 4 mags and 1 is new and the other is a couple hunded rounds old at most.
 
I was simply speaking of the linkage in general but what ever works. At least you found the problem with the trigger.
As for the mags, do you mean you have a extraction problem?
As in the mags are not feeding rounds correctly?
Try; cleaning the mags internally (blowback actions fill mags with crud),polish the lips with some brasso or the like.
Does the problem arise with all ammo types or just certain types. My 597 will not feed truncaded ammo of any type well,or loosly crimped ammo like anything Remington. The issue with that is that the little ridge on the bullet hangs up on everything resulting in a jamb, more often then a feed. Even then accuracy suffers as the bullet is often stripped of lead on one side or over crimped on one side from denting.
If this is not the case for your 597, please clarify what is happening.
If you are referring to spent case extraction and ejection I fail to see how the mag influences this. Unless a fresh round on the top of the mag is bumping the spent round off the bolt like an ejector plunger.
 
Thanks guys, I did put the spring around the lower pin last night as i suspected that is where it went.


Ciphery, I have had a spent casing extraction issue. I did the extractor adn the hammer at the same time since the cost was so small. I also had a feeding issue but after teardown the action was filthy and gritty so I cleaned that up so that is more than likely the issue i had with that. Here she is all dessed up adn ready for a night out!!!!!!

Tip: if you are having a feeding issue due to fouling be sure to clean the interior of the magazine as well. It's usually the culprit. You can find a tutoria on rimfire central it you need it.
