ok, so i finally got that pin out this morning! yay only took 3 day! lol


so assembled the thing easy enough. racked it about 5 times, seemed good! great. i litteraly did a victoy dance!

but then i racked it a few more times and the problems started.......

now instead of getting stuck on the dang hammer it is rideing right over it!!

it is not pushing it down far enough to have the hammer go under the catch and cock!!!

this this has coused me more frustration in 3 days than anything i can think of!

Diatribes is probably right, check to make sure the hammer isn't in backwards.

here is my only idea left......... is there sposed to me a sleeve in between the hammer pin and the hammer?

what could be bent that could couse this problem?

I doubt you could have bent any of the FCG. Possible I suppose but Id think youd have to use tremendous force to do so. Im still thinking you have the hammer in backwards. That would cause your trigger to fail lock-up. The flat part where your hammer hooks onto your trigger faces to the rear of your rifle. You should be able to see where the face of your hammer strikes the bolt/firing pin. It would be worn slightly at the impact area. Try putting it in reverse of what you have it at now?
