bullets and value

A Weak sear spring is a common malady, not always the case but in a lot of cases, the problem. Frank is right about the ejection of course, try to fire only one round and see if the hold open engages, if it does every time, the ammo is powerful enough, I image the trigger is not cocking. Actually the toggle action cocks it but the sear is probably not holding it back. A worn sear bar/firing pin interface may be to blame and the firing pin is not being held back. When this happens SOMETIMES the go full auto. DOK's gun did this to me, but the malady was repaired. Ted
