    Busted Front Trigger on Astra SxS

    The problem is a broken leaf spring for the hammer in the right lock. This shotgun seems really close to an AyA matador, which I think I can find a leaf spring from. Would these springs have the potential to be interchangeable, or would I have to alter the spring to fit, or totally punt on that...

    Busted Front Trigger on Astra SxS

    This is what I'm dealing with. Only the one trigger works, otherwise this would be easier. That's why it won't go on. I have to reset the left hammer. EDIT: Got it back together. When I closed the action, though, the left hammer reset and the right discharged. So now the firing pins are in...

    Busted Front Trigger on Astra SxS

    The cams on the front of the receiver locked up as well and now the forend won't go on. Haven't tampered with the lock AT ALL. I'm calling the store I bought it from and if they won't fix it for free I'll jump their s*** and demand a full refund. :fire: I've had the gun for less than a week and...

    Busted Front Trigger on Astra SxS

    I recently bought an Astra Imperial boxlock 12 gauge. The front trigger felt a bit spongy, but seemed to work fine and everything else looks great about the gun. Turns out, something more than sponginess was going on, because now the front trigger won't engage the firing pin. What could this be...

    .500/.416 Nitro Express- What's The Scoop?

    I've been doing a lot of looking around at the fine doubles. I know I shouldn't, because I can't even afford the rag to mop up the drool these pieces seem to drive from mouth. Anyhow, I was looking at the cartridge lineup of the Blaser S2, and I noticed one cartridge I knew absolutely nothing...

    Old Rifles and the People Who Shoot Them

    Hang fire, you are now my hero. I love looking at those old ballards. I guess I have so much interest in them because it was one of the rifles used by buffalo hunters of olde that you never hear about, and for me atypical is good quality. That's probably why those old Evans repeating rifles...

    Lever action .30-30: will they be produced in 2100?

    I've heard that the guy who runs it is a staunch anti-gunner, but it may just be that he's an aristocratic moron trying to be the next Oliver Winchester- and failing miserably. I'm not sure, but as bad as Marlin has gotten, I'm inclined to think it's the first reason. It isn't like Remington...

    Well, if it takes more than three, then the fourth should be for the shooter.;) How much does a Sako like that run? Emberglo- that model 11 is absolutely beautiful.

    Very nice. I love the Marlin looks. It's such a shame what FGI has done to that fine company.:(
