The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

My new M91 seems to have free play with the trigger. Unlike any of my other Mosins. I guess it could almost be called slop. There is no pull with resistance prier to the hammer dropping so to speak. I noticed it right off when I took her apart. How often does one run into this? Just curious.

All the time, situation normal , irritating, but so long as the sear holds secure I can live with it.

it holds well and is one of my best triggers.

Most of mine are like that. No issue to me.

Funny...in my limited experience of 3 mosins, I had just assumed they were all like that...

too funny. Although all of mine have a long trigger, there is some tension on the trigger. This is the only one I can move the trigger with out touching it.

Triggers are like women, they are all a little different but for the most part you can get used to them. It is when they surprise you they become scary or annoying. Now you see why I am not married anymore right? Bill
