11-87 Trigger Group

Post by tudurgs »

Am trying to reasssemble my grandson's 11-87 L/H, (I got it back in a bag of parts) and have come up with a problem I haven't encountered before. The silver release pad that releases the tongue which allos you to insert a second shell in the magazine tube is jammed. I can't get the tongue to release. Any suggestions?

Pull the trigger group and see what's wrong. Something may be bent or broken.
What could have happened... did.

The trigger group is out of the gun. I can't see anything that apears to be broken, but I'm not an expert of 11-87 trigger groups.

FWIW, my S-I_L, who is not really a gun guy, but is very mechanically-minded, picked up the trigger, stared at it, turned it over several times, and pushed and pribed, and suddenly, it worked, His answer "I have no idea what I did". Anyway, the gun is now on its way to the range tomorrow.
