Sks reassembly issue

[u/Medical_Banana1586]

Hey all

After many recommendations I got myself an SKS.

I just did a takedown and a cleaning thanks to some videos, but I’m having trouble putting it back together, namely when snapping in the trigger group.

I seem to have the mag assembled and trigger aligned well but I’m unable to snap it in place no matter how hard I push. Any help would be appreciated!

EDIT: Thanks everyone, indeed I just HIT IT EVEN HARDER!! It’s all clean and put back together

The SKS is not a Swiss watch. It is over-gassed as fuck from the factory, made from billet steel with obvious tool marks, and can handle a lot more abuse than I think you realize. They aren't exactly precise pieces of engineering. Sometimes, you have to beat them a bit to get things to fit back after full disassembly. I don't know what else to tell you.

Actually you cant tell me anything about these rifles I think your struggling to come up with things to try to show me you might possibly know maybe something I have shot these rifle for years decades Actually I know what they need to be cleaned to be able to put away and be able to shot again Good luck with yours and your shit method of just spray it with G96 and put it away Stuck gas piston in the gas tube G96 IS GREAT But you have to do your part also Im done

Bro I never fucking said anything about G96. You're actually just arguing with somebody else and thinking its me.
