ak trigger

[jmiro]

I just bought a bulgarian ak. I know that aks are known for sloppy triggers. However after I fire a round (about ten out of twenty times) The trigger does not return. Can I get some solutions?

first thing is to make sure the hammer spring legs are properly over the rear of the trigger.

sounds like its installed wrong.

properly, the bent legs of the hammer spring will be on, and over to the inside of the rear of the trigger.

that should fix your issue

I had a problem with my AK trigger. After a few rounds it would act funny.


I was only putting the safety down to the first notch and not all the way down. Under recoil it would work up and start to bind on the trigger. Simple fix but I'm sure I turned bright red when I figured out what was happening. I had spent a lot of time fooling with that spring for a few weeks.

the most likley cause is as jaybell has explained. beyond that, theres a good chance its just a geometry problem, not knowing what your looking for, relacment would be the easiest and prob cheapest option. (as opposed to taking it to a smith)
