Just got back from my first trip to the range since installing the bolt assembly with your SS firing pin replacement kit in my Yugo 59/66A1. I am absolutely thrilled! Performance was 100% flawless. Went through 120 rounds of just about everything under the sun (including Wolf MC) without a single slam fire, failure to fire, failure to feed, or failure to eject.

Thanks again for your great product, professional work, and outstanding customer service.

Murray’s Gunsmithing,
Thank you for your service, a few days ago my SKS had a slamfire that could have been tragic, here is the video of that event: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jtxMPAXWV8

I appreciate the ability to quickly fix something that is otherwise a hazard.

I just wanted to pass on to you how happy I was with your product. I purchased 2 firing pins one for my sks and one for my fathers sks. They have made a difference and I have a lot more confidence when firing and most importantly loading my sks. Thank you again and I look foreword to doing business with you again.

Dear Ben,
I purchased a spring-firepin, hammer and sear for a rifle that I shelved months ago. I thought I got a deal when I got the rifle but when I range-tested it I realized I had gotten a failed experiment. When I chambered the first round it slam-fired 4 shots!!! Upon disassembly I realized that some Goob had taken a file to the hammer!!! I was skeptical as to whether a new SKS sear set would work in my rifle as it is an SKS Sporter-D model that takes AK magazines. I decided to attempt the surgery 2 weeks ago. The install has several more steps as the trigger assembly has an AK mag release in front of the sear spring.

In conclusion my rifle now functions flawlessly!!! It is still a long pull but smooth as butter. Your parts resurrected my expensive, useless junk. I’m very pleased with the result.

Thank you and God Bless!

Mr. Murray,
Just want to let you know that I took my SKS to the range this past Saturday after installing the bolt that you refurbished and installed your spring type firing pin. The gun is now shooting much better with no slam fires and far less misfires even though I was using the hard primed ammo. Will be getting some good ammo this week.

I would recommend you to anyone needing SKS help.

Thank you very much!!!!

FYI, I was lucky enough to get one of the most recent productions of Murray’s FCG, “Made in the USA” hammer, sear & trigger. The parts are of the finest quality and finish and are marked “USA”. I needed to get a Franken-Bubba SKS sorted out and Americanized (922r compliant). Murry’s FCG got me well past the required number of parts, on a Yugo SKS to make it legal.

I ordered the parts, confident that I could replace the original parts with the new ones, well that was my first mistake. I have the necessity tools and workshop to do things like this, however two of the pins in the trigger assembly did not want to come out. So now I get to the point my pin punch is mushrooming, then it happened I bent the safety and it broke off when I tried to bend it back. At this point I knew that those pins (that had been in 40+ years) were not coming out by my hand with out lots of collateral damage. Well this SKS has maching numbers and I wanted to keep it that way, so I decided to let the professional take over. I sent my FCG and the new parts to Murray’s and they installed them and repaired the safety, at a really fair price. I am 100% happy with the parts and the service. So to anyone that may want the compliant FCG form Murray’s I would say just send yours to Ben for a no problem install at a fair price.

Dear Sir,
I recently installed your GV-1 SKS Gas Valve into my old Yugo 59/66. The by-design oversize dimensions of your gas valve totally eliminated the slop that was causing all the gas leakage. It now cycles and functions semi-auto every time – a big change in behavior!

Thank you for a well thought out and manufactured product, and quick ship to boot!

The kit did the trick. No more slam fires even with the soft R-P 61/2’s. Now, if I can make myself keep the pressure down, (reduce loads) I think I’ll be ok.

Thanks,

Hi,

I wanted to thank you for your recent work on my SKS bolt. I have a really beautiful Russian Tula, all matching and in new condition. The bolt face was nicely but gently polished, and the recoil spring and new firing pin fit, look and function perfectly. I’ve put about 500 rounds through it since your work, and everything is perfect. I have a lot more confidence with the gun knowing that the potential for slam-fire and other bolt/firing pin issues have been eliminated with your work.

Thanks again. SKS owners really appreciate your service.

Thanks again.
