I just wanted all to know that my shotgun is fixed. Although I got many good tips as to what it may have been, none proved to fix my problem. I did want to say that after a little perseverance on my part and my unwilling to give up, I figured it out on my own. Whomever took it apart the last time, did not put it back together properly. I believe that was one tip I got, but never having worked on them before, everything looked proper but in reality, it wasn’t. What I found out was on the triggerplate there is a rod that must be under tension so it can properly operate the cocking slide. What you have to do is back the rod that puts tension on the triggerplate rod out, then place the cocking slide in its place and then the triggerplate. Once all that’s done, tap the rod back in to engage the rod on the triggerplate. You’ll need a nylon tipped hammer to drive it back in. That pin is then held in place by the handguard where it mates up with the receiver and of course the tightness of the fit of the pin. What gave this all away was when the last person put the triggerplate back on they had to tap it with a hammer which caused a small bulge where the pin was not retracted to properly install the triggerplate. You should not need a hammer to replace the triggerplate because mine fell right into place once it was put together properly. I learned a lot with this repair so if there are any questions I might could help you with, please don’t hesitate to write me. Thanks again for all the tips that were given to me. I have had to write this 3 times. I’m not sure why the other replies I made were not publish unless I can’t see my own replies, so if this has been redundant, forgive me.
