Looking for solution to SKS trigger reset issue
This is a 54' Izzy. Did a trigger job (i know what I'm doing, not a hack), this reset issue was there all along actually, it's just time to address it.
All I did for the trigger job is a light but smooth polish in the appropriate places, no angle changes, no real depth changes and swapped to a 3.5 pound MCarbo sear spring, that's it. And I gotta say it's surprisingly good trigger now coming in at a very smooth repeatable 4.5 pounds.
Here's the issue:
- when I charge the rifle (unloaded or loaded) and somewhat ride the bolt down (which I do not do, this is for diagnosis) it resets fine every time.
- when I charge the rifle and just let it slam home like it's supposed to it doesn't reset every time. Something about the carrier slamming the action moves something and no-go.
It's easy to see in the diagnostic window what's going on, just not 100% sure how to solve it properly.
There's only one youtube video I've found on this particular issue, but I'm not so sure about it. This gentleman's suggestion is to remove a little from top of bolt follower disconnector.

Seems to me the issue is bolt follower disconnector is not long enough causing the issue.
Any ideas here gentleman ?
Thank you.
