TC Renegade in .50, bought used but in what seems to be very good condition.
Bore is bright and clean, no major dings or scratches in stock etc.
Took it to the range today and it was shooting great for about 10 rounds, then when I pulled the trigger just got a pop from the cap but no firing. Replaced the cap, same thing. Pulled the nipple and used the nipple cleaner to make sure it was clear and tried again- not even a pop this time, like the hammer didn't hit hard enough to set off the cap. 2 more caps, same thing. Used a knife tip to clean out the recess in the hammer, another no fire. 2-3 more caps same thing, cleaned the hammer recess a little more, finally fired- called it a day.
Thoughts?
