Lunjman AG42 rifle blowing out primers
- Thread starter antique collector
- Start date
If this is the first time you've used the rifle, it might be worthwhile having someone check out the headspacing. I've had two of these rifles and both functioned 100%, but I'd had other people tell me that some of the guns were improperly headspaced. Maybe incorrect matching of rifle and bolt? Never had a primer pop out of the pocket. Only problem I ever had with with milsurp ammo that failed to extract and I broke the extractor pulling on it repeatedly. Probably an excessive pressure loading for that gun.
Another problem Ljungmans have is excess fireing pin protrusion. Get it checked for length of protrusion.
Maybe someone on the board can reccomend a website to get the info or already knows.
Such as the people at Marstar.

You have a head space problem. Within the action there is a cross piece that the bolt is supported by when in the cocked position. there are a series of these cross pieces which adjusts the head space on the rifle, to correct the problem you should take the rifle to a competent gunsmith who is knowledgeable on these rifles.
