Help with SKS bolt disassembly

[raptor3]

Hey,

I just got a new Yugo SKS. Dissassembly has been a breeze so far... until I got to the bolt. The pin just won't push out!!!

Any ideas how to get the pin pushed out so I can disassemble the bolt???

Good punch, big hammer, hit it like a man, just because when you were born and they held you up and said "it's a boy" doesn't mean you have to act like one.:)

Seriously well documented fact that you have to whack the bugger.

Not budging. :(

Screw it, I just let the whole thing sit for a few minutes in solvent... the firing pin shakes around freely so I'm not going to bother taking the bolt apart.

Thanks anyway!

As long as it rattles freely you should be good to go. Good luck;f

As long as it shoots semi-auto (NOT full-auto slam fire, NOT manually operated bolt-action) I'm happy. :)
