Repacking A Gun

Traditions2

I've been having trouble with my guns spitting after releasing the trigger. I just had two of my guns repacked and they are spitting. I decided to take it apart to soak everything. When I put the spring and everything back in, the back of the gun is loose and the trigger has no pressure. I tightened everything up but the trigger is still loose. Am an idiot or what?

What are you having them repacked with and what are you soaking them in?

not sure what they are being repacked with. Sherwin sends them off. i Need to learn to do this myself to save money. I usually either soak in thinner or clean and dip cleaning solution

if you have no trigger, then it is missing the big spring in the back. Who packed them? ALSO you need to pack the back end first, then hold in on the trigger and screw the front on. You will "notch" or "groove" the needle head if you don't.

seriously, guns are WAY simple to take apart and clean. Try it on an old gun
