So I bought a GP MKIII Police shotgun in original 2 3/4, 12 gauge. Nice shotgun overall. It levers open, loads and closes correctly. But here's the problem...when you raise the lever and the breech closes, the safety lever on the right hand side drops down (as it should). Then to fire the gun, you have to push the safety lever forward, and then pull the trigger...again no problem. The problem occurs if you do the following...After levering closed the breech, if you pull on the trigger before disengaging the safety, the gun naturally will not fire (as it shouldn't since the safety is engaged), but if you now lever the safety off THE GUN WILL FIRE! In other words, if you pull the trigger with the safety on nothing happens, but then take the safety off and the gun fires without touching the trigger...that is the problem. Is it supposed to work that way? I was watching youtube videos and iraqvet8888's greener doesn't automatically engage, and so he never needs to turn his safety off, and several other images of greener police shotguns don't even have a safety lever. Please help? How is this action supposed to work? Who repairs these, and where can I purchase parts if needed?
Thanks!
