Mosin Nagant Bolt Disassembly

[@zanderhenley9717]

I was literally unscrewing it and as soon as he said “it’s under tension” my spring launched out across the room

[@fibalex1858]

Zander Henley lol same

[@xFinneasx]

Same

[@Scouten819]

hahah he beat me just to that part i was lucky to point it at my desktop

[@basedchris8784]

Me too! Lol

[@ChristiRich]

It was on its way to Russia!

[@XtremeConditions]

Literally the only straightforward, full explanation (with variations) on how to disassemble the bolt of... Literally one of the most common rifles on the planet... This was LONG overdue. Thanks, and fantastic video!

[@AstroBlender]

Haha, no problem I'm glad you liked it.

[@reubenrex7818]

I guess Im asking randomly but does anybody know of a method to get back into an Instagram account..? I somehow lost my password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me

[@reubenrex7818]

@Aries Myles thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process now. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@reubenrex7818]

@Aries Myles It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy! Thank you so much you saved my ass !

Great video! No random talking just straight to business. Thanks.

Thanks! Have a great 4th!

[@TrueAegis]

You as well

[@fratercontenduntocculta8161]

I was totally surprised by how simple disassembly was. Thank you for sharing this!

[@kylewithac1]

Just bought one of these from my local gun store. However, it was in battle worn condition and rusting all over. Thanks for showing us how to take it apart for cleaning! Best one out there.

[@joelstolarski2244]

I lucked into a battle worn, or stumbled into one I guess. Glad I didn't shoot a round,before checking bore. Looked like a hamster nested in it. Fouled beyond belief. Might have pulled a piece of a tooth out of it so far.

[@AstroBlender]

You're welcome, glad you found it helpful.

[@rush2124u2]

You should mention how to take out the bolt, out, not everyone knows to pull the trigger while pulling the bolt to release it. Nice touch 3 steps to remove the firing pin, very cool press against a soft surface and unscrew from the top, too easy, nice The video was well done and informative. Thanks

[@motorcitysteel9820]

I'm am a new owner of a 1942 Russian Mosin Nagant. This was a very helpful video. Thank you!

[@RantzBizGroup]

Yes, indeed... this was exactly what I needed, thanks for the time and energy to put it up on YT!

[@ultranitro437]

Thanks for this video! I was playing around with my bolt the other day and I almost had a heart attack when it started coming apart! I thought I had broke something.

[@joelstolarski2244]

Did the same thing. One I got is a mess. Soaked bolt in some tranny fluid and when rinsing it off, damn thing came apart. Already a franken gun, and figured it decided to destroy itself. lol.

[@edgarroop3689]

Until I watched your vid I didn't know there was more than one way to disassemble the bolt. Thanks for showing me an easier way. Good vid. I subscribed.

[@ericrasmussen2629]

Best Mosin dissassembly and assembly video on KZbin. Thank you very much

[@AstroBlender]

Eric Rasmussen You're quite welcome. I may make another one in even better HD soon.

[@mikescuba1]

Great, I watched two others and still couldn't make any sense out of them. This one made it look plain and simple. Good demonstration, well done. and many thanks.

[@Tinstar2]

Outstanding instruction on breaking down the MN Bolt. I'm glad to know how to do this. Thanks!

[@AstroBlender]

No problem at all!

[@diveguy7]

After watching several videos trying to find the best way to take the bolt apart....best one so far. thank you. thank you. thank you sir.

[@m0t0k0kusanagi]

I've owned one of these for a few years and didn't know the guide bar could be used to unscrew the firing pin - great video!

[@AstroBlender]

I am glad you learned something, thanks!

[@Raptus_Gaming]

It's kinda like how the tip of the bayonet can be used as a flathead screwdriver to screw/unscrew the reciever

[@joelstolarski2244]

Thanks for showing different ways to do this.Just got a rough non matching one. Wanted a shooter. for now. Definatly a simple gun. Haven't figured out what to doo about some mold on the inside of the stock yet. Didn't want to mess up the finish. It's never been refished which is a plus.

[@quantusmechanicus5921]

Thanks so much. Used this video to put my bolt back together after seeing what marks are on it. Was super easy to put it together even though it looked hard.

[@seskers1]

OUTSTANDING!!!! Simple, easy to understand instructions. Thank you.

[@AstroBlender]

I'm glad you found it helpful, thanks.

[@seskers1]

Any other how to videos on the Mosin would be most appreciated.

[@spacecadet210]

Small world, sort of, I just finished commenting on the 10 year review of your AVX and saw this. I have a 1938 Czech VZ-24 Mauser, a WW II bring back, so all original numbering, that I bought from a friend for $50 bucks seven or so years ago. Looks like we have at least two common interests.

[@AstroBlender]

That’s cool! I had a ton of firearm video tutorials on KZbin, but most were flagged and removed, so my now my channel is strictly just astronomy based, unfortunately.

[@beng808]

Thanks for making such a clear video. I may or may not have accidentally dropped my bolt and it came apart. Thanks for helping me get it back together

[@Raptus_Gaming]

At least it's a russian rifle, so you know it's at least made well enough to be dropped without breaking

[@sturny3698]

Very well done! I just picked up a Nagant, and your video is the first one I reviewed for the bolt takedown process. No need to search any further. TWO thumbs up, for sure!

[@AstroBlender]

sturny3698 Thanks, I'm glad you found it helpful!

[@dewz440]

Excellent!! Best video I've seen for making the Mosin bolt disassembly and reassembly an easy task. Thanks!!

[@AstroBlender]

You bet!

[@BenjaminRavenstone]

Dude you saved my ass 😂 I took mine apart and couldn’t get it back together. Fully confident now thanks for the THOROUGH video!

[@itsalexn4219]

Couldn't unscrew my bolt for some reason but twisting the firing pin(as you did) instead of safety did the trick. Thanks!

[@AstroBlender]

+ItsAlexN Cool, I'm glad it worked out for you! Take care!

[@glockbrothers]

Thanks for the reminder. had to look it up how to do it again. I just finished cleaning 3 mosins!

[@jpalmi]

Excellent video. I'm going to be looking at a friend's bolt as he said his safety is next to impossible to engage, so this has remained in the safe instead of getting used. gives me an real good idea of the what to look for.

[@thomastheawesome4822]

You sure it's nice just stiff? They tend to be mighty stiff

[@shaunsunderland7927]

Very good take down video of the bolt for the Mosin-Nagant very good video Best video out there!!!

[@AstroBlender]

Thanks!

[@lancelangdon7569]

Thanks. This helped me change a worn FP spring.

[@AstroBlender]

+Lance Langdon You bet! I'm glad you found it helpful!

[@TheNarrowbandChannel]

The Mosin Nagant bolt is an amazing piece of engineering. Every single component has multiple function and performs multiple things. Ever see the Benchrest Mosin made by Grimstod Desh?

[@Goofbird76]

Thank u I'm cleaning my grandpas old mosin he cant see well so I'm doing it for him. That and I took it apart like it's nothing and surprised him.

[@ItalianMafioso344]

best disassembly and reassembly that I have watched out of all the others. Great job.

[@AstroBlender]

ItalianMafioso344 Thank you!

[@yeeturmcbeetur8197]

“Use the mosin nagant multi tool that came with your rifle” >tfw mine came from a shed under some wood 😎

[@TrashPanda5150]

I know this vid is really old but for future viewers. I personally wouldn't recommend using the guide rod as a tool to remove/install the firing pin and spring. If you don't have the proper tool made for it, you can get one of those little ignition wrenches, or a small crescent wrench, anything but a part of the bolt. It's a tough chunk of metal but with so many other ways to do it, why risk spreading the end of that guide rod?

[@michaelo1492]

Quality lesson, just removed all the Cosmoline from by bolt. Your video makes it so easy from start to finish.

[@AstroBlender]

+michaelo1492 Good! I'm glad that you found it helpful!

[@cbooher3]

This is the best video I've seen on this subject. Good job!

[@astatine5781]

There are too many people who don’t know how to properly disassemble and maintain their rifles, too many grandpas who only bring it out to shoot a deer and never think about it, too many people who carry daily and rarely inspect or clean their firearms. Anyone who owns a firearm should adopt the militaristic mindset of taking care of your rifle (or handgun, shotgun, etc) and truly learn how it works and how to maintain the beautiful machine it is. I own a mosin and when I got it I found it too risky to try and completely disassemble the bolt so I only took off the bolt face and guide rail, this video was long overdue.

[@markradick9213]

Best Mosin Bolt Assembly and disassembly I’ve seen so far. Very clear, concise, and actually shows the camera (the audience) what to look for. Good job man.

[@OKWqc]

Spaciba mate! I had trouble understanding it.... very precise and comprehensive vid. Molodets!

[@bunkysdad]

I agree. Nice video that should help any novice get it right.

[@umbrellaagent1543]

Dude best disassembly video I have ever seen. I’m always a bit nervous to take apart my guns in fear I won’t get them back together but I tried your video out and I didn’t have any big issues at all I really appreciate it. Can you make other video with other guns plz

[@jerryday4193]

Thank you very good instructions...just bought a nagant...have it tore down to clean

[@AstroBlender]

Nice! Simple huh?!

[@jerryday4193]

Only thing now im am not sure of is best way to clean stock..seeing leave it in sun and let heat out

[@AstroBlender]

That can be tricky. You can use harsh chemicals, but hurt the finish, but leaving it out in the sun will really dry it out. I used a heat gun and heated a spot, wiped it. Heated it again wiped it. I continually did this until the area was clean. Then I did that over the entire gun. It took forever.

[@GarretGoodbarrel]

really wish I saw this video when we were removing cosmolline from my buddy's new mosin. We took it apart the 3rd way but now that I have one, I think i'll use the tool. looks alot easier! :D

[@AstroBlender]

+Kyle Clark No worries, as long as you got all that cosmoline out! :)

[@GarretGoodbarrel]

Mine hardly had any in it. Just a few goobers in the bolt body and a light glaze on some of the other metal parts but almost none in the wood. I'm so happy I don't have to get cosmoline out of the wood :D

[@AstroBlender]

+Kyle Clark Lucky you! That is the absolute worst part. In fact, no matter what you do, I feel like I could never get all of it out. Ever. Every time I'd shoot mine, it would still keep coming out.

[@3buzybeez]

Great video! Clear, concise, and informative!

[@AstroBlender]

Steve West Thank you! I'm glad it was helpful for you!

[@kchickenlord]

Watching this video has reminded me that I have a bolt tool sitting around somewhere that I'd forgotten about.

[@lpd1snipe]

Thanks for the simple breakdown. I own several rifles. However this is my first Russian rifle. I currently own a Russian Ural motorcycle and a Russian watch I got in Murmansk in 2000 as a Merchant Marine sailor. I guess it is now a Trifecta. :)

[@HGV3XX]

Nicely done. Thanks for the refresher. Nice carbine too.

[@tristinjudd2595]

Best video on KZbin for this 👌

[@TransistorBased]

So I'm assuming it will reasonably go back together without the firing pin? I'm looking to test the headspace but I only have live cartridges. So if possible I'd like to just remove the firing pin and carefully chamber a round with the gage

[@kristopherhilton8065]

Everything was dead on with mine except the only way I could get the first piece off was to take the charging knob and move it to the right and pop it off. Other that that this was really helpful for my first time disassembling it.

[@RobertSmith-le8wp]

Thanks !!! Helped a ton

[@AstroBlender]

+Robert Smith Good I'm glad!

[@VCBird6]

Very nice video! Saved my ass when I accidentally pulled back the charging knob and the bolt came all apart on me ^^;;

[@AstroBlender]

I am glad it helped!

[@user-ec9eq1cc6g]

Extremely well explained thanks

[@samimakela7973]

Hello. Thanks for your video. Had some trouble with assembling the bolt for the first time, eysterday:)

[@imperialweimarball]

The third disassembly way reminds me of the Lebel M1886 and partially of the Mauser 98 I think it would be useful though unnecessary to have a stock disassembly disk like you see on the Mauser Gewehr 98 and KAR98K.

[@dalewoolard2332]

Great video! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@najamuhajirnaja8613]

Verry good job.

[@AstroBlender]

Naja Muhajir Naja Thank you!

[@farcozeee]

[@cherokee5425]

Great Video! Thank you!!

[@AstroBlender]

You're welcome!

[@Southpawarsenal]

Very informative video, thanks a ton.

[@AstroBlender]

You bet!

[@NYG5]

the final method is very much like the Mauser disassembly when using the stock with the disk holes as a disassembly tool. Overall... seems like less of a pain in the ass than disassembling the mauser, there's less fighting against the compression.

[@stevew8191]

Nice simple explanation. Thanks.

[@AstroBlender]

No problem!

[@GuyDeSchutter-vh6zy]

Very clear!

[@trplpwr1038]

Glad I watched this, forgot to check my firing pin. Good video great guns.

[@AstroBlender]

+trplpwr Yeah, definitely do that. You just never know! Thanks, take care!

[@trplpwr1038]

Thanks again

[@MetalHippie83]

+Slymin how important is checking the firing pin?

[@roteroktober360]

never heard of a problem with too long Firing pins in the mosin, the only that can really happen is that the bolt becomes too short over time and simply wont fire anymore, but thats not dangerous as long as you wait a few secs after the misfire

[@je25ff]

'It's under tension so be careful'...AFTER it flies out lol.

[@phantomshotgun]

i never knew i could do that with the guide rod of the nagant bolt. i've been missing my multi tool after i moved and been struggling trying to rassemble my bolt without it

[@huckleberry602]

Good video. Clear, concise info.

[@AstroBlender]

+huckleberry602 Thanks!

[@constitution_8939]

I have a simple question though I'm not sure you'll even see this comment after 7 years and 2 month's after recording this video but here goes: First I'll explain my problem, my bolt is Incredibly Hard to work Especially turning it to the Safe Mode and More Especially with returning the bolt back to the firing position which is itself Not unusual because Everybody whose made a video about this rifle has said the same thing regarding that function. Anyway, I have not only cleaned every piece of it and the whole rifle but did some careful filing on parts of the bolt that still had machining marks and rough or sharp edges that had Nothing to do with it's functioning and have 5 years of Machine Shop experience with milling machines, lathes etc, so I know what I'm doing in that regard. I have determined that it is the spring that causes the Very Hard tension in the all-around operation of the bolt and thought that clipping a loop or two Off the spring would make it a little easier in it's operation which makes sense to me, but I Don't want to ruin it if I'm Wrong because I Don't have one to replace it. The spring seems Overly and unnecessarily strong and wonder if You have encountered this or know of anyone who has and might have fixed the issue by doing as I'm suggesting by shortening the spring just a loop or two? I'd really appreciate it if you see this and Especially if it Is something you've experienced and maybe tried or know of someone who did. So, Happy Holidays to you either way.

[@tjhbbp3]

I've never had much luck loading bullets into stripper clips. Perhaps it's because I've tried to do so prior to assembling the entire CARTRIDGE???

[@jeffreynagel1796]

[@Chieflywaze]

I'm used to Lee Enfields, and seeing how simple the disassembly of this part is was really baffling to me.

[@jesussolis363]

Thanks

[@A.Chp-Schweppes]

Hi, interesting video. I've just bought a Mosin too, but it shoots on the right (it's ok in elevation), how to sight in in windage, in which direction should I move the front sight ? thanks

[@mysterynerds]

you helped so much thanks

[@AstroBlender]

+bob smith You bet!! :)

[@moderdoty8606]

I am reassembling the bolt and i cannot fit the guide bar on. I think i over screwed the firing pin and cannot get it unscrewed.

[@elliotemerson6661]
