Thread: T3 Half- cock issue

Greetings all..

I have a friend down ChCh who has an issue with a T3 to which he has had a half cock mod just done.
He was out withb a companion last week - roared up a stag went to close bolt - rifle discharged
scared crappers out of him - needless to say no staggy - boy .
Bit of a concern really
when he got home put tape over fired case head and chambered + closed bolt - firing pin indent on the tape- he doesn't reload so cant chamber just a primered case.
he asked me what I think - seems like sear not engaging and is firing when closes bolt

I have advised him to speak with a good gunsmith I know in Carterton then take the rifle back to the gunsmith who did mod on it

as he says very dangerous and hes only glad nobody got hurt
does anyone have any similar experience of this happening post T3 bolt Modification?

raises a safety concern as you would expect the rifle to be returned in a safe condition..

welcome your thoughts

Cheers
