I was taking apart my UTG l96 and I removed the bolt. I unscrewed the back of it, where the part is that you cock the gun with, a small pin fell out of the part that you grab. I have tried to reassemble this part but I can not get it back in place correctly. I would post a picture but my computer is dumb and wont let me.
Are you referring to one of the pieces in the pic below?

Yes, the little silver one that connects the the grip part of the bolt.
The piece you are referring to is not necessary. Mine fell out and never put it back in. The only thing that little silver piece does is keep the bolt from wiggling around. That is, if you cock the rifle, and take your hand away, the bolt will simply dangle onto the cylinder unit. It just rotates on the cylinder but it does not affect anything.

Its hard to describe, but basically, do not worry about it.

Oh... well, haha, I worried about it. Thanks for the help, your picture set me in the right path. I modified my above post explaining how I fixed it.
Haha, I worried about it too when it happened to me a few months back.

I had gotten the guarder bolt handle, and thought I needed that piece for it to work. Well that silver piece was too big and I spent over four hours carefully sanding it down. Little did I know, but that piece was not required. ::)

I had written a whole guide on how to do it to...


Glad you got it figured out though.

The piece that goes in front of the trigger, sorry I don't know these terms. You have to take that piece out to pull the bolt out.

Cheeseman, I can get the bolt in, yes for stock you have to hold down a little lever like thing. But after I have the bolt back in, the piece that goes next to the trigger ( straight rectangular piece with a curve on the end of it ) will not go in.
Are you referring to the spring guide stopper? I thought you figured it out on the other forum? Having problems again?

Once you pull the bolt back, and the cylinder goes with it, and the spring guide stopper pops out a little, you will not be able to get the cylinder unit back into the receiver without dissembling the rifle. I had the spring guide stopper come loose in mid bolt pull, and the sears blocked the cylinder unit from being able to go back into the receiver. The spring guide stopper would not go in either. Not sure if this is your problem, just throwing out there what I have had happen to me in personal experience.

So the issue is getting the spring guide stopper to go back into the trigger box which is attached to the receiver/cylinder?

If so, sometimes the cylinder unit rotates while in the receiver. If you look at your cylinder, you will notice that there is a long gap and you can see the spring and spring guide.



When trying to get the spring guide stopper into the trigger box the cylinder gap needs to be presently facing towards you, so that the spring guide stopper can push up through that gap. If the cylinder is slightly slanted and only part of the "gap" is showing, the spring guide stopper will not go back in.

Simply take an allen wrench to the cylinder and rotate it so that the gap is fully visible and the spring guide stopper should slide right in (through trigger box, connecting itself--here a "snap" noise.)

I think that is what you are referring to, am I right?
