I recently bought a Remington 742. Long story short, it was an impulse purchase from a friend. I admittedly did very little research on it beforehand, which is unusual for me, and now I'm regretting it. Took it apart (which is a pain) and thoroughly cleaned it. Was meticulous about reassembly. First time to the range, click. No joy. Take it home, disassemble again, disconnector on trigger group breaks in the process of getting it out of the receiver. I've ordered two. Meanwhile disassembled the bolt, all seems fine.
I think the bolt may not be locking forward completely. I also think it may have something to do with the INCREDIBLY STUPID plastic piece that is supposedly supposed to be a cover for the ejection port. Any experiences with this or suggestions? I'm already trying to figure out how to unload this thing once it's fixed without offending my friend.
Thanks in advance.
