Hi Guys, anyone ever experience the trigger not resetting for the second shot?
2 weeks ago at the end of my skeet day it fell off the rack into the snow. It was full of snow inside and out.
I brought it home and took it apart including removing the trigger. I sprayed it well with WD40 figuring it would dissipate any water. then wiped it all out. I didnt take the bolt apart but i did spray it and wipe it down.
shooting it a week later (yesterday), i found that several time through my skeet round the trigger didnt reset. No FTF or FTE. the second round was in the chamber, just no bang when I pulled the trigger.
I do know that you can actually disengage the trigger by pulling the bolt handle back to about 7/8 of the full distance and the trigger disengages.
While at my club, I did end up going back to the cabin we have and taking it apart again to wipe it all out. Put a drop of oil on the rails and bolt and it still did it. Im thinking for some reason its not going all the way back.
When i got home last night I removed the bolt and took it apart to clean and wipe it down. It didnt look that dirty but I'm hoping that's the problem. I wont be able to test it for another week.
Any ideas what else I should look for?
Thanks
