Some fine work from "America's Master Gunmanker"
So when hunting this year I went out with my G2 and it had the rimfire firing pin set in the hammer and when I came back (having never shot it) I noticed that it had fallen out! I've never shot the thing in rimfire mode ever. They refused to mail me that part, so I decided to send it back...
So I call up S&W, wait 20 min on hold, and they give me a label and I send it back for warranty repair. BIG MISTAKE. I get the thing back 5 weeks later, and instead of driving a new pin into the hole and loctiting or expoxying it in there, they replaced the entire hammer assembly with some off the self part. It is visibly different, and what was a decent trigger pull before, is now ridiculous. While not excessively heavy or terribly creepy, after you squeeze the trigger and the hammer falls there is this pronounced vibration--a TWANNNNGGGGGG. Annoying, and needless to say this is going to ruin fine accuracy. And isn't that the whole point?
Does anybody know why this is happening? Is it because something that is supposed to be dampening the hammer spring isn't? I've had two G2s and a Contender and none of them have done this.
