On the verge of sending a brand new pedersoli 1885 back for warranty work a second time I may as well ask some advice here to see if anyone has any ideas.
Long story short, the trigger on this rifle swings loose on its pivot. It is completely disconnected from any internal relationship with any other part of the mechanism.
It's has happened twice now, within 5 minutes of unboxing the rifle and testing the trigger mechanism (dry fire, if you will, but without dropping the hammer hard), both in the unset and set condition.
The first time the rifle was returned from being fixed the hammer could not be de-cocked and the trigger was frozen in place until the set screw for the set trigger adjustment was tweaked a turn or two. After that, a couple tries of the action, as described above, and something must have come loose inside again.
Assuming there isn't a manufacturing defect of some sort, just what the heck is so out of adjustment in there that the trigger no longer engages with anything inside?
I'm not about to pull apart the rifle, which would probably void warranty. Just wondering if anyone might point me in the direction of enlightenment regarding Pedersoli's interpretation of a single set trigger on an 1885 high wall replica...
