Default need help with Sauer and Sohn 12 ga SxS

I have a prewar Sauer and Sohn 12 gauge SxS which works well for me on sporting clays. One day at the range it became progressively harder to break open, and eventually locked up completely. I mailed off to a NY gunsmith, who reported that they disassembled and cleaned it, but couldn't find anything wrong. They put two boxes of shells through it without a failure, and mailed it back to me.

The gun worked fine for a few trips, but last time it started happening again, with the addition that now the second trigger doesn't reliably work. I really enjoy shooting this gun -- when it works.

I'm pretty handy, but I am reluctant to turn a screw on this gun. Can anybody recommend a fix, or preferably a gunsmith familiar with older doubles who might be able to fix it?
