So guys, I bought a 91/30 recently, and the trigger is pretty wiggly. It still has a clean break at the end that requires a decent amount of pull to set off, so I'm not worried about it going off by accident, but that wiggle before the end just bugs the crap out of me. I've looked around a bit and see that it might be the sear spring that needs replacing. Anybody know a good place for spare Mosin parts?

After firing about 20 rounds or so, the cylinder begins to lock up between every 5 or 12 rounds fired.
Regardless if shooting single or double action.
Sometimes it can be freed by gently rocking the cylinder back and forth - other times I have to open and reclose it.
This morning at the range it was especially troublesome.
Any ideas or fixes I can perform ?

Get some cleaning mats. I clean them at my kitchen island. Nothing gets on the counter and I can take my time. Look up Tek Mats

Generally, ranges have strict rules about uncased firearms being anywhere but on the firing line. In other words, if you aren't on the line shooting, your firearm must be in a case. No opportunity to do any cleaning, and likely no place to do any cleaning. Like Mr Stu sez, no range is going to expose itself to unnecessary risk.

I don't think any range is going to want you taking anything apart on the range itself. They probably wouldn't want you interrupting the other shooters when they have to call a ceasefire for you to retrieve springs that fly down range, or soaking the bench with solvent. If they don't provide an area for cleaning it's probably not going to happen there. I also do not have any permanent location for cleaning. I have my cleaning gear in plastic tubs/totes that I store in the garage. I'd setup a space in the garage but too clod in the winter and too hot in the summer so it's either the kitchen table or my desk while watching gun tube -
Fun fact. Registered R's currently outnumber the D's by almost a million in FL. Considering R's surpassed D's only a few yrs ago I'd say that's a huge swing and this state is gtg for a while. Just not with realestate....

If you were running a commercial range, would like the risk of having to call "clean-up on lane 3" when someone knocks their bottle of solvent over? They would have to shut down the entire line if any of it spilled forward.
