First I've ever heard of a Repro SST with that issue, I'd have it looked at. Nobody better than Brad for that in my estimation.

Just to continue Brad's comment about inertia triggers, even the widely accepted "mechanical" triggers almost all have some kind of inertia weight that functions as a lock or blocker to prevent the second sear from being tripped during the recoil phase.
In my little experience, most single triggers fall into two catagories: inertia blocked triggers and inertia switched triggers. |

I had that thought Kenny. I think if it shoots properly, I am not going to mess with it. Candidly, I am reluctant to send it off anywhere. I kind of sit here hugging it to my chest thinking "mine, mine, mine". Childish I know but that is the way I feel. Is there someone in Texas who can do the cleaning or whatever. I have had an experience wih someone who did not know what they were doing with an AYA side lock. Do not wish to repeat that. Would spraying some G96 up around the trigger/safety help?

I think Kenny has a good point too. You might try a few rounds spraying some solvent in the slots by the trigger and letting it drain out.

Shoot it. If it works, don't do anything. Squirting stuff up in there serves no purpose if the gun is working. Brad and Chuck are right. Some mechanical triggers with an inertia block sometimes will not function at dry fire. Some inertia triggers are set light enough that they can be dry fired successfully, but they are still inertia triggers by design. My Beretta is an original factory inertia trigger, but I can go click, click without banging on the butt. It has been adjusted to work with .410 shells but was not converted to mechanical.

SST Question
We did not have inerta block triggers. I think there is dirt or old grease making it stick. Have you shot the gun and if so did the shells eject properly?I personally would send the gun ,if it were mine,to Chris Maist at Clay Target Sports in Princeton,NJ. Phone number is 609-921-9358. Chris has workes on Parker Reproductions in the past. I hiope this helps

Chris Maest is a factory trained Krieghoff mechanic now out on his own. He has been working on my Krieghoffs for many years. Thanks for letting us know that he works on Parker Reproductions.
