Yes, T, it cocks on opening.

The trigger is NOT adjustable. According to havlinsales.com, most 44US rifles were not adjustable.

This afternoon, I swapped bolts between one of the good rifles with the malfunctioning one. The problem went away -- for now. That tells me that if anything is defective, it's the sear-engagement surface on the firing pin -- not the trigger. Havlin doesn't have them in stock and has no potential supplier for them.

I guess that, for now, my problem is solved.

Thanks to everyone for your tips.
