Problem w/LC Smith Field Grade
Hello,
I was getting ready for pheasant season, shooting some clays and had malfunctions. The right barrel fires, but the left won't. Both cock back, but only the right firing pin falls. The trigger is a single select "Hunter One-Trigger" and it obviously isn't switching over to the left barrel.
Unfortunately, this isn't the first time, and I had a local gunsmith work on it and he charged me $70 to fix it (he said it was difficult and took a long time). I tried it a few separate times since that fix, but once again it isn't working.
Any ideas on who works on these?
The gunsmith said if I had any problems to bring it back, but not to knock him, but I don't think he knows how to reliably fix it.

I fogot to ask if anyone has heard of a single select trigger on a field grade. I checked the blue book and it says it's a $200 option. I was thinking they must have been referring to the costs to fix it later [Smile] .

Anyways, I thought of selling it after it was fixed, but I feel bad about selling someone what looks to be a chronic problem. Either way, it shoots great out of the left barrel and will have to do for pheasants this season--note to self, practice reloading right barrel.
