DPM Light machinegun:
The two main difference between the DP-27 and the DPM is that the recoil spring has been re-located to the rear of the receiver and permenantly fixing the bipod to the top of the barrel jacket.
Protruding from the receiver is the recoil spring housing.
Press in the locking lug and rotate the spring housing a quarter turn counter-clockwise.
Keeping a firm grip, remove the spring housing.
Remove the recoil spring by pulling it out.
The recoil spring guide extending out of the receiver. This is useful during reassembly to ensure that the spring is properly around the guide.
On the right side of the receiver is the locking screw.
Unscrew it by rotating counter clockwise.

Hinge the lower receiver down and remove it.
Pull back the cocking handle and remove the bolt and carrier out of the receiver.
Bolt un-locked
Bolt locked.
Lift the bolt up from the carrier.
Remove the firing pin and locking flaps.
All the bits. Unfortunatly on my gun the barrel is so tight its a quite an effort to remove it. But it is removed in the same manner as the DP-27.

Let,s see now how to take apart the gas system.
Depress the catch and remove the cleaning rod.
[/IMG]
Depress the catch to unlock the handguard band and slide the band away from the barrel
[/IMG]
[/IMG]
Lift the rear of the upper metal handguard and slide it rearward to disengage from the lower metal handguard.
[/IMG]
[/IMG]
Now we can see the gas system.
[/IMG]
Remove the wooden handguard
[/IMG]
Pull the piston rod to the rear until its clear from the piston and after, remove the rod from the rifle.
[/IMG]
[/IMG]
Now, remove the piston from the gas tube
[/IMG]
With a wrench or a SVT gas tool, loosen and remove the gas tube
[/IMG]
[/IMG]
Push the gas regulator in so you can remove it from the gas block.
[/IMG]
[/IMG]
Trigger group removal.
At the rear of the rifle receiver, swing the little gate to the left,with the cleaning rod or any similar object, push the catch to unlock the trigger group and remove from the rifle.
[/IMG]

The stock can be removed from the rifle after removing the cross bolt. Personally, i dont feel the need to remove the stock,maybe once a year for inspection.

SVT 40 field stripped!

Reverse procedure to reassemble the rifle. The SVT is not so complicate but care must be taken when taking apart the gas system because of the smalls parts involved,that can be lost easily. hope you like my little tutorial. Thankyou.
