Chuck, Thanks for your reply. Mine's a non-selective trigger so don't know if it's the same. I'll look at it this weekend. On the plus side I don't have to worry about scratching a pretty piece of wood. My German guns came with wood not quite as nice as the BSS. Regards Jeff

Jeff The non-selective trigger has the same safety.

I had a 20 ga. BSS with the sst that I did the suggested procedure on for disconnecting the auto safety. It worked, but had consistent ftf's on the second barrel. JR

John I don't know why that would be. Did you try putting it back to the original orientation and did it fix it?

No, I traded it for a Beretta A400. Afaik, the dealer sold it without any repercussions. JR

John My thought is that it was coincidental. The rod orientation shouldn't affect the trigger.

Several years ago I had a problem BSS with failure to fire the left barrel when the right barrel was selected to fire first. Both barrels would fire just fine if the left barrel was fired first. I came to find that upon recoil the left hammer would wedge against some wood on the buttstock and would not move. A little work with a small chisel fixed it just fine and it has never given a bit of trouble since.
