Hello,
I have taken in a Garand with a trigger assembly problem:

With the safe off, the trigger when pulled, travels thru the "slack", then stops dead and will not release the hammer..No click

However when I pull the trigger assemby out of the rifle, it works perfectly on the bench. I inserted another assembly and the rifle functions perfectly, so this tells me that it is something in the original assembly..

I have looked the offending assembly over pretty close and it looks perfect..Any ideas?

Thanks,
Bill P
