Stay Alive!
« on: August 22, 2022, 12:53:38 PM »
Not sure why but we've seen 3 or 4 trigger groups recently that have the Rebound Disconnector installed below the Trigger Bar, and it should be above the Trigger Bar. The back end of the Rebound Disconnector has a "crossbar" that sits on top of the Trigger Bar and in the pocket machined from the bottom of the Disconnector.

If you see your Trigger Group looks like the front one in the photo below, be aware, it can cause unintended accidental full auto bursts that has caused the death of at least one man. The Trigger Group in back is correctly assembled and has the Rebound Disconnector installed correctly. Please be sure yours is correct, and be sure to check this before buying any SKS.

If you feed it junk ammo, why should you expect filet mignon results? Well now you can, with our new "Neck & Throat" chamber reaming service!

Very good point Ben.
It's always good to know the FUNCTION of every part, groove, cut, notch in the SKS.
I tried to get a easier to see picture of the proper installation but it's dark in there :)
You can see the crossbar that runs across the top of the trigger bar and the clearance notch cut in the disconnector for that crossbar. 
Note that some early (years?) Russian Trigger groups do not have this added feature.


In this second picture you can see that the hammer kicks the Rebound Disconnector when the action cycles and cocks the hammer forcing the trigger bar off the sear. 


I suggest owners examine how the hammer/disconnector/rebound disconnector/trigger bar interact. 
I would post a video but it takes more than two hands :) Just watch through the inspection hole as you slowly cock the hammer.
