Just got mine but the bolt seems to be locking up. can only bring it about 20-30% of the way back. Any insight guys? Bit new to these.
Turn the safety off and try racking the bolt again

Likely need to adjust the trigger stop screw, if its out to far the trigger/hammer cant reset when you rack the bolt.
Where would this screw be located? If it's the one behind the trigger then that's not the issue as I can't get the trigger anywhere near there.
Trigger is locked up as well, regardless of the safety.
Got the bolt back. took a good amount of force. Seems like an issue with the hammer as it's now locked down and the trigger is still locked up. I'll fiddle a bit more but I'm tempted to just send it back to TI, I don't care where it comes from this is a more than annoying for the price paid.

This Dragunov model should be renamed "Fallinoff". Yes, Type 81 SR Fallinoff Edition. Sounds right.

My suggestion is do not use brass screw, use the steel one.
I drilled a decent hole and tried to tighten it then the screw head is broken. Now there is no contact to the frame.
Also, I went to Homedepo, Canadiantires, couldn't find the correct nut for the trigger screw.

Ah ####, that's rough man =\, yea not sure why someone recommend a brass screw ? They're definitely more fragile than a steel one, I've broken brass punches accidentally with just a little inappropriate force and that scares me to use a load bearing screw made of brass =\ You gotta get that one out somehow to replace it.. maybe try and drill it out? Or drill a small hole into it and try to get a screw driver into the malleable brass and unscrew it ? Goodluck man
