If the trigger pin is missing, and I cannot confirm that at this time, obviously it was missing when I assembled the action/barrel to the stock. Removing the action/barrel from the stock is not possible, as far as I can see, without removing the screw which is under the bolt when the bolt is in the receiver. And I see no way to loosen that screw with the bolt in place.
If I did assemble it with the trigger pin missing, it almost certainly has happened to others previously.
To rephrase my dilemma, how to remove the bolt from the receiver when the trigger will not release it?
