Is anybody on here knowledgable about the Remington model 11 or its counterparts the Browning A5 or Savage 720? I have a few but don't really know too much about them at the moment.

 

I took one of my model 11s to the range for the first time today and it is having issues. When I pulled the trigger it went boom or failed to fire. Upon further inspection I noticed it was light striking the ammo when it didn't fire. I took it home and just got it completely apart. I suspected the firing pin was the issue. I pulled the bolt apart and discovered that it has the square type firing pin but it looks like it is in good shape. The firing pin has no spring installed which is shown in the parts diagram.I am sure this is a problem in some way but is this the cause of my problems or could it be something else?

wish i could help !

I would find a Remington forum and ask there .

I would try shotgun world

I will try there.
