    set trigger won't set.

    Naw, guy that had it before me didn't know what he was doing and started twisting screws. when I have real time to take it apart and look and see what he did to the set trigger. I don't think it's any thing big. This Navy have coil spring instead of the leaf spring. As it stand I can shoot it...

    set trigger won't set.

    pretty much as you decribed it. original owner had the set screw screwed in all the way. Infact it would not stay cocked. Backed it out all the way so at least firing trigger now works and hammer half and full cocks with no problem.

    set trigger won't set.

    I picked up a Navy arms Hawkin's fornext to nothing because set trigger won't work. Firing trigger works fine. I can cock it and fire it ok,just can't get the set trigger to work. Any ideas or suggestions on how to fix it.

    R E A L bullets

    I agree hard to hard lube them and if you have any excess on them, they are hard to get started.

    firing a cap prior to hunting

    I had the bore butter problem this last weekend. I fired off a couple of caps then loaded her up and she didn't go off. Ended up taking the nipple off put a little powder in and but nipple back on capped her and she fired right off. Fired all day with no problems

    proofing barrel

    Just put my first traditions hawkens together and was reading in Dixie Gun Works catalog rhat you should always proof the barrel before you shoulder fire the weapon. Is this really needed? Arent barrels proofed before they are sent out?
