You can probably see from the picture of the insides, there is quite a bit of wear in there. Widder, I polished the hammer sides and the tang slot the hammer rides in. It didn't feel right, but I ground it down making the trigger thinner.figured not much to lose. OLG, you are right the back of the trigger was rubbing the lever. Gentlemen, I appreciate all the feedback. Thank you, I will appreciate any feedback. Is something bent here.wrong trigger, wrong hammer, ? approximately the same position shown from the outside in the other picture.ĭon't know if this is pertinent to the problem, but notice that the rear of the trigger is actually rubbing on the lever. The inside view picture shows (after takedown) the hammer and trigger just before engaging the half cock notch. The outside view picture shows the rear of the firing pin pushing against the hammer face This doesn't seem right to me.cocking the hammer with the firing pin? Sort of hard to envision if you are not familiar with the gun, hope the pictures help. Those two vertical surfaces do not make for a smooth start to the cocking action.

It appears that the rear of the firing pin (a straight up vertical surface) is the 'pusher' against the vertical surface of the hammer. When you operate the lever, it is very hard to get the bolt moving rearward much easier after it reaches the half cock position. 22 its a great handling little rifle but something isn't right in the cycling/cocking process.
