 When the hammers are cocked you should be able to wiggle the triggers ever so slightly without setting them off . The back trigger on the 16 I had was solid no wiggle , a couple strokes of the file and the wiggle was back and no more double fire . |

 Looks like there's a little damage not only to the notch but also to the point of the corresponding piece (for lack of the proper term). . |

 Dean, that's what I'm seeing. the point on the sear seems to be worn off. The hammer is not cocked so I haven't looked at that junction when it is yet. Has anybody taken one apart? Being a farmer, I always want to just tear into things knowing it's already broken...:) I did take the single trigger out of my 16ga skeet gun because the barrel selector beside the trigger would not move. Got that fixed so I can at least move it if I would want to. |

 Thst is what I would guess too. The notch in the hammer looks a little shallow to me, along with the sear tip not fitting into the notch as well as the other. A little crispness in fit with the tip a little flatter would likely fix it. I would just send the lock to a companent double gunsmith and have him fix it. Nothing looks worn or broken to the point a real repair is needed. I have a 20 gauge LC Smith that is suffering the same thing and my solution was to buy an NOS hammer for $25 on Gunbroker. I haven't fixed it yet but my locks look really simple and I have a spring compressor so the work should be pretty simple. |

 The left hammer notch and trigger sear nose have been altered. Both have had the sharp angles rounded, which makes for a light unpredictable trigger pull.  Trigger pull is regulated by using mold makers stones (never a file) to adjust the angle of the tip of the sear nose. The more acute the angle, the harder the pull. The more obtuse the angle, the softer the pull. |

 It is important to note too that the photo he shows are not of the gun cocked.  So, it does not really show us much. |

 Brian, that is correct, I do plan on getting some photos up of it cocked to show everyone.  I do appreciate everyone's comments. |

 The left sear needs to be totally reshaped. The left hammer notch also looks to me like it is at a much more acute angle and shallower. Compare it to the right hammer and sear. |
