Thanks all for the helpful posts! I got it back together in the stock and cycled dummy rounds through it a bunch. Happy to report all problems appear to be resolved, including the trigger issue I was having that prompted me to take apart the trigger assembly in the first place. Going to the range later today or tomorrow morning.

Took to the range and sighted in with 60 rounds. It shoots like an SKS. No trigger issues or problems.

Edit: thanks again to all those who helped!

Well, that's another one in the books, LOL. Glad we could help out. And as Phos said, good thread.
My Avatar is a pic of the real "Ghost" SKS in honor of xxxsks(joe). It is a pic of a fully decked out SKS in Capco hunter's kit. This was mine, the only other pic I had ever seen of one was Joe's.

I've been haunting this thread.  Great info, great job getting it back together (and finding the spring wink1).  Glad it all worked out.  Cheers, Bruce.
