The Sumatra's All Better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well after all the Frustration thinking my Baby was all messed up and ruined,it was all because of a small screw that wasn't properly Loctited and the feed bar fell out of place and got into the hammer rail.Nothing Serious and they installed a new screw,properly loctited and she's actually feeding shots better than she ever did.They think the screw was overlooked and was always loose and just took awhile to let go.
Now I can get back to shooting this Hammer and enjoying it again!
Look out Yokes,,the Condors got backup!

Love the Sumatra hammers....even today, with the exception of noise, may still be the best pure hunting rifles out there. People who are weight sensitive tend to mean woman about them, but they really don't weigh in any heavier (Or balance differently) than a 12ga. duck gun.
They make a purple lock tite, which is more for vibration resistance than for super-human-removal methods. If it ever does that loose screw trick again, can walk you though a partial take down, identify the two screws that are likely to back out and screw the gun up, and have you purple lock tite them in place.
