It's been a few years, aw geez, told my step dad, and he was gonna email me, just trying to get trigger assembly out to deep clean, I'll look it up on the web, LOL.
I know I can use a bullet to disengage assembly, just missing a few pointers

**** the rifle, engage safety, press in the dimple with a bullettip and it pops out. make sure the safety is on for removal and instalation.

just got it, holy cow!! Used a punch to press down, HARD on dimple and it popped out, it was never this tough!! Soaking in hot soapy water, brushed clean, will clean rest, lube and reassemble. Then see if my occasional double tap goes away.
Thanks guys!

Re: I'm sooooo embarrassed!!! Forgot how to field strip SKS!!

pull out the bolt carrier and strip it down, specially the firing pin. thats most likely your source of double tap. the pin should rattle when you shake the carrier. also look at the bolt face and make sure its flat around the hole for the firing pin. most people use a large drill bit and recess the hole slightly, twisting the bit by hand. its called the volcano effect.
i had a similar problem with double tap, i did the drill bit thing, as well as hit the firing pin with 600 grit paper to smooth things up
this link has helped me out severial times...
