Hey Guys,
I recently purchased a used Sig 232 S. It appears in excellent condition and clean but can't get through a mag without this strange problem: slide comes forward and chambers next round but the hammer drops before I reset the trigger. Light strikes the primer. Reliably does this once or twice with every mag load. I have tested w two factory loads and variety of hand loads.
I removed the firing pin and cleaned the channel although it was completely clean. What would cause the hammer to drop before resetting the trigger? Sig support rep said "you can send it back but we likely won't have the parts needed to repair it..." .
Checking the Sig forums, I noticed a couple posts about light strikes but nothing on the hammer dropping before trigger reset.
Sig would normally charge $50 and provide a shipping label but not this time because I am not the original owner and I live in CA. My local shop will gouge me $100 to ship it back to Sig.
So, I am looking for recommendations. I know...move out of CA but it's just not practical at the moment.
