Hi all

haven't posted in awhile but have a question and need some help please 

been shooting my R1 or more lately and today after work tWhen I went to cock it it only went about half way and stopped. Like it’s jammed up, the safety is still in firing position and trigger feels a bit weird 

the pellet game out, so it’s not loaded thinking the safety is the issue with the trigger mechanism 

is this something I can correct easily?

Update

just went to put away and shook it and it rattled so think the spring broke 

Edited,

Was time to move on.

Rick you ruffled my feathers big time.

To take a shot at a vulture, even if it's an unlikely shot, such as a hail Mary, is a dumb ass thing to do and then to speak of it here is once again a dumb ass thing to do. You need to edit your post, that crap doesn't need to be shared here.

Totally inhumane thing to do. Shame on you

Rick,

Your post and response would indicate a person not willing to except responsiblity for their actions. I hope I am wrong. I don't know you, but do hope this has opened your eyes and will give some thought to what has transpired here.

No one wishes for you to move on. Post your needs or wants and there will be ample people willing to help. I would advise to be more conscious of what you do and say.

We all have been enlighten to errors of our way. That we learn and move forward. Wishing the same for you. I was a bit abrupt with you and do apologize for that. I could have gotten my point across in a more tactful way.

Mike

Dear all

Actually, I really would like to apologize. I spoke with  a friend whos more into environmental things like this, and schooled me. 

So, I would like to apologize for my ignorance in my actions, and statements. My apologies all. I attempted to edit earlier and failed..

If anyone (mods) feel fit to edit or delete this whole thing go ahead. 

I actually had zero percent, for a 100 yard shot off the shoulder with a .177. But none the less shouldnt have done it

Have  a nice day 

Rick,

Thanks for stepping up with an apology.

It takes a strong person to admit fault, own it, and apologize.

I respect you for that.

Scott

Rick,

We are all in this together, appreciate your understanding and apology.

Now onto the meat and potatoes. Did you find that your spring was indeed broken?  If so are you in need of help? Parts are very accessible as are aftermarket kits by ARH (James Maccari) and Vortex. You may find that just replacing the spring (if brocken) may be all that's needed. If you need help speak up, let us know what you find. HW's are generally easy to work on but reccomend using a spring compressor on the R1. You may already know all this and if so beg my pardon.

Cheers
