Gents;

I had posted a couple weeks ago about issues with my new to me 629 misfiring and not going into DA anymore. I found the issue! I don’t think that the pin that the trigger drops down on and pivots on is supposed to be sheared off and stay in the trigger is it!? How bad is this to fix?

Thanks!

Ouch! Not an easy fix for sure. That’s definitely a warranty job if you want it done right. Ick. I feel for you. Grech Outdoors is a nightmare. That’s going to take a long time I’d guess.

Shoot I was worried about possibly losing the gun for 12 months while it got fixed. Just bought it off the EE, got about 4 rounds out of it then poof!

If it weren't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all.

Cheers.
 
A decent machine shop with a lathe and milling machine should be able to re-create any broken parts from the broken one. It might cost you extra but the turnaround should be quick.
 
It’s definitely not an easy fix. These problems & other S&W issues require the company to have a Service/Warranty repair facility here in Liberal land. Wolverine has taken on these responsibilities? First I heard...........an investigation of their site claims they are. They are not promoting it, but, ya........true.....

The problem they will have is getting parts from S&W in the USA. Same thing that caused huge delays for Murray Charlton before he retired.

If it's literally just a pin, this is the way I'd go, at least until you had confirmation that someone who can do the work has an actual part.

I had one of the pins holding my 870 fall out in the middle of a field, literally just had a buddy of mine cut some bar stock and take it down to a decent fit, did the job until I found the proper part.
