Savage Fox B hard to open action.

Post by Hillco »

Hey,
I'm sorry if this has been covered already. I can't or don't know how to search if it has.

Is there a way to ease the cocking pressure when opening the action? It's hard to get the barrels open far enough to reload.
All I can see is to change the hammer springs to a lighter spring.

Thank you,

Jim

No idea Jim. However, used to live in Boerne years and years ago. Great breakfast Taco's at the Flagstop Cafe (at least I think that what it was called). Sorry can't help you on your issue with the gun.
