Received my Auction Arms T/C Renegade today. The previous owner listed it as being in excellent condition but I think the lock/hammer assembly is shot.
It only goes into both half-trigger and full trigger once in a while. My half trigger shows the bottom of the hammer barely above the nipple. Usually when I cock the hammer back slowly, it only goes into full cock... skips right over half-cock.
Also, when I test fire it, most #11 caps are deformed but they never go bang. I tried different nipples. There seems to be a little slop in the hammer when it lies on the nipple. It rides up & down a little... not much.. maybe an 1/8".
I paid $150 for it. It's drilled & tapped with mount & rings and a cheap Tasco scope on it. I really don't know if I should take a 2-way shipping, handling & insurance loss ($21 + $21) by returning it... or is it expensive to fix??? Thanks in advance!
