OK, I just got my Mariner back from the service center today. A few weeks back I had posted some concerns about the Mariner finish coming off inside of the receiver. I called the service center and was advised to send it in, I did so and they replaced the receiver, it was covered under warranty. Got it back and it looks great and everything.
However, when doing some basic function tests, I came across a few problems:
1) I tried loading a shell from the mag tube and the slide gets stuck half way when pulling the forearm back. I have to pull the forearm back very hard to get the shell to chamber.
2) Another thing that I noticed was that the trigger was getting stuck. I installed a Knoxx stock a little while back and the same thing happened. At the time I was advised to loosen the bolt that attaches to the receiver a little and then the trigger worked fine from then on. I loosened the bolt somewhat again and the trigger no longer gets stuck.
3) Finally when dry firing the gun, I realized that the safety switch no longer works. It will dry fire if the safety is on or off.
I am hoping this is simple to fix. I would hate to go through the hassel of sending it in again. Any advice about what I should do to take care of it is appreciated.
