Trigger not cocked after firing

[Art]

Thanks for all of the suggestions. I feel that all of them are genuine offers of assistance.


So that we don't end up beating a dead horse let me point out that I realize a truly qualified person needs to perform the repair. Safety first.


So that leaves me with two lingering questions:


1. [ HÃ?Â¥kan ] Do you think a loose sideplate could indeed be the problem?


2. Is there a chance that oil and dirt have built up somewhere and a good cleaning and lubrication will resolve this?


Note: This gun has the LIGHTEST trigger I ever felt on any firearm. 10 years in the military and moderate amount of civilian shooting. This may affect someone's opinion on the above questions.


Thanks to everyone who posted on this subject!
