Please forgive my lack of proper terminology.
Problem: Gun fires a few rounds (anywhere from 2-20) then I pull the trigger and nothing. No click.
Eject the shell and find what appears to be a weak primer hit...but when I pulled the trigger there was no click. Re-insert cartridge and bang off she goes.
What appears to me to be happening is the Hammer (if that is what it is called) is not catching on the ummm hammer catch.
thus when the bolt goes forward momentum is causing the slight primer hit.
When I remove the dust cover/springs and cycle the bolt by hand everything appears to function as it should with plenty of interference between the hammer and hammer catch nothing appears to be misaligned and none of the parts appear to be worn.
If the weak hammer hits were just a touch more I am pretty sure it would go FA or a nice little 2-3 round burst. Although I would love to shoot a FA gun I would rather it be my choice not my guns.
This gun has less than 500 rounds through it. Any ideas guys? Anyone had this problem?
Thanks
