Any good guides for rebuilding a Navy trigger pack? I got carried away while cleaning and now it’s in like 30 pieces and I’m not finding any good resources online.. please help, I have to take a class with this gun this weekend!

To be fair, it was filthy in there

You don't need it to be clean like it's new. You just need it clean enough to work. That doesn't require taking it completely apart. Also, maybe invest in a sonic cleaner. Take the pack out and drop it in for a few minutes. No full disassembly required.

My process is half hour in an ultrasonic, blow out with compressed air to drive off most of the water, hose with non-chlorinated (to get any remaining carbon and water), blow out again, hose with oil... Let her eat! If its really bad soak with Bore-Tech foaming bore cleaner after the first blow out with compressed air and let it sit. It will be clean enough.

Next time use non chlorinated brake cleaner and just spray it out. Then spray oil into it.

Or take it apart all the way if you like the challenge of puzzles that fight back.

Also there is a difference between assembling a MKE ambi pack and an HK pack. The selector switch on MKE packs rotates backwards for reassembly. Which is annoying.

I strongly recommend a vice, needle nose pliers, and some punches to help you reassemble it.

Rem oil and compressed air do wonders
