blasterjudd Posted August 16, 2014 Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 Hi All My gun developed a fault today whilst out decoying the first barrel will not fire it clicks when I pull the trigger but the hammer doesn't hit the cartridge at all. You can physically feel the difference between the triggers when you put in snap caps i.e a lot less movement internally on the first trigger pull? Any ides what's happened and gone wrong greatly received? By the way this is a non ejector English sxs 20g shotgun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnfromUK Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Sounds like broken spring if the trigger feel has changed. Could also be broken firing pin? I don't quite see why either should restrict the trigger movement unless a broken piece is restricting movement? Either way, its a trip to a gunsmith.

belly47 Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 I think EVO had this problem recently with his s/s, message him and see what the resolution was for him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brett1985 Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 sounds like a broken firing pin... off to the 'smith for that one, unless one of our rowdy lot is near you and can help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
