In taking it down I discovered that the hammer had a hitch in getting pulled back...my Piettas don't have that issue.. took springs out of the equation..long story short if the hand is taken off , it (the hammer ) moves ok .. but with the hand on and in place, you have to "work it " on pulling it back..didn't know if this is a "wear in situation or not .. I'm comparing it to Piettas that have been shot a fair amount...
Any thoughts or guidance?
