    hunter special double/single firing Archived Message

    Some time ago I purchased a 16GA Hunter Special from an online auction. I really like the feel and looks of it. It however double fired on every few shots. I returned it to person I purchased it from and he had it repaired by a gunsmith. After receiving the 16 back I shot maybe a dozen or so rounds of trap with it with no problems and was eager for bird season to try it out...the first day out it would fire only one barrel on several attempts. The next trip afield it double fired several times again....
    the gun has a single trigger but it is not a Hunter One Trigger.... when the gun was returned it had a small odd shaped piece of steel in a ziplock bag attached to the trigger guard...a note said that it had been replaced...

    My question is has anyone had a simlar problem with a single trigger hunter arms shotgun and if so what was the fix.
    Thanks....
