Please pardon the lack of precision in this question. I greatly enjoy and learn from this board, but I am not at all knowledgable about what is inside the lock plates of a side by side.

I have a Stoeger (Sarasqueta) Model 4e 28 gauge side lock. Out shooting clays over the weekend, I pulled the front trigger, and the right barrel fired, but then nothing with the rear trigger. When I opened the gun, the right firing pin was extended out and would not push back into the face of the wall. The left firing pin is loose. If I point the gun down, it drops down out of the hole in the wall. If I then point the gun up, it drops back in. Now with the right firing pin stuck out the way it is, the gun will not close.

Any thoughts about what might be wrong, and any recommendations as to who might fix it, would be greatly appreciated. I am south of Atlanta, and frequently in Columbia, SC, although shipping the gun is not a problem.

Thanks. Lloyd
