Last weekend I took the "new" BSS out for a round of sporting. I had 5 or 6 failures to fire the second barrel because the trigger did not reset. I was using 3 1/4-1 1/8 loads, so lack of recoil is not an issue here. I recently got rid of another shorter barrelled BSS that I had used for about 15 years without the first malfunction. Each time this happened I would remove the unfired shell, close the gun, snap the right hammer, whack the butt with my hand, then snap the left hammer, after which it would shoot fine for a station or two.
I'm gonna tear it down soon to look for the problem. First thing I will look for is crud, whether or not it just needs a good cleaning. Barring that, have any of you solved this problem on a BSS, and how? Thanks, Stan
