Charlie,

Is the forend on the gun? Has the trigger plate been off recently? Anything done to it just before this trouble started?

Send it to Keith Kearcher in Bend Oregon for a clean, blow out and make work. You will get away with less cash outlay than anywhere else and get your gun back quick. I he doesn't do what you want on your schedule, let us know.

i was hoping to be able to fix myself if possible...just thought maybe some of you fellas had had this problem before... charlie

I can't imaging both sears having the same problem at exactly the same time so I think it must be in the cocking yoke and slide mechanism. Crud maybe?

Dean, I was thinking the same thing, Crud. Pulll the floorplate off and take a look.
