Is this mormal. I thought I had a problem with the firing pin doing the same thing, but I found it has a "floating firing pin".
Any info on this?
My 1968 Mod 94 (.30-30 WIN) has a fair amount of play in the trigger too. I've noticed it on all of the ones that I've seen since I bought mine. Seems like that's the way they are built.

Back in Oct (2014) when I bought my Mod 94, the shelves at my local WalMart were awash with .30-30 WIN. 150 grain and 170 grain, a couple of different brands and priced between $17 & $23. The night before the gun deer season opened here in WI they pretty mach all disappeared! They are just now showing up back on the shelves.
I'm planning on doing some reloading but haven't done so yet.
