I must apologize about not posting in awhile, but I’ve been battling ongoing back issues. I’m finally back in the shop pretty much full time now, so work is getting done.
Here is a very nice Perazzi MX 2005 trap in 12 gauge. The shotgun came in with the complaint of not firing on the bottom barrel. The customer just inherited this and is an avid Trap and Perazzi shooter. While it was here he had me clean and do a partial rebuild on it. The shotgun also has release triggers and I serviced them as well.
The culprit turns out to be a very worn bottom barrel firing pin. The replacement parts I use are Giuliani after market parts, because I believe they are superior to factory parts. Most of the springs were replaced as well and the leaf style hammer springs were replaced with their universal springs. I’m a stickler on fit and finish and was not happy with the trigger break on the double releases, so I addressed that issue as well.
The shotgun was test fired for reliability and safety
