Looking at a video to breakdown my SKS to clean off cosmoline the video said this was the wrong orientation and wrong way it's put together.

I've removed cleaned and put right back in place like it came from the seller. Is my picture show correct assembly of it (easy to get back assembled if you compress upwards on underside of your bench :-) )

Next orientation correct? Curly end will go into bolt just have it off to side while i clean





Thanks

i have always put the crinkly end into the bolt-carrier

That's the proper way

Thanks for responding i meant to log on last night seems i found more youtube stuff that confirmed it was correct. Guess the one video was some whacko
