The pin that the locking lug rides on has rotated and I cant cock the rifle anymore. How would I go about fixing this?
You got it, Part # 28 is rotating. Very odd. I have not worked on one, I'm sure others have. Just looking at the PDF image and seeing a forward slot in the detnet pin one might (?) think a drift pin with no # (?) goes into the small hole shown in the diagram and removing that would allow you to remove the detent and spring. And all sping can fly so keep that in mind. It would appear that pin slide over the flat notch in the detent part so it will not rotate. I'm thinking you will need to pull the detent and look so IF I were correct drive the drift pin out and have a look.
Crosman parts & service are great and low cost also shipping is normally under $5.00. You would need to have the part(s) # and a CC in hand and call them, very quick and easy to deal with WITH part #.
Someone else will come along who's had one apart , is it possible to change your post subject line to "how to remove dent on..." as it seems that is the answer you will be needing.

No longer touching on the flat face but on the rounded face of the pin.Part 28# has machined a flat face on part #15 which is the friction face to break the barrel. but part 15# has rotated so the flat face is no longer touching part28#
The rifle is quite old so im not opposed to parts just failing Its pushing 15 years old. Might just be years of cocking it a bit too hardDizzyRat you are going to have to remove the stock and barrel to access the detent pin. I’m at a loss as to why the detent could rotate. If the rifle is new I would send it back for repair or replacement. If not under warranty it is a simple task to re rotate the detent. But the lingering question is how did this happen
