pavman Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 MB that’s a worry cause I have a Raptor 712, 2004 so far the only prob I have is cycle of 28grms, so I load 30grms special pigeon through it with no probs. You have to change the piston round in mine for 36grms and above. I went on the Franchi web site and found the importers GMK phone 01489 587500 they will advise and sent me a manual free, very nice guys and sure you will get the answer you need to put it right, let me know hoe you get on plz pavman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemini Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Try cleaning the trigger unit out. The weather has been bloody cold and if you have any grease in the trigger it will solidify and cause a light strike. G.M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
