trouble shooting

I would pull the side plate off and cycle the action while watching the parts move. It could be as simple as some dirt in the action, or as complicated as a broken single action sear face. It could be some old oil or grease gumming up the action, something out of place, etc. The only way to tell would be to pull the side plate and observe it. If you are not comfortable pulling the side plate, by all means, find an honest, competent 'smith to look at it. It is much better to pay someone for their expertise and time, than to ruin an otherwise good gun by improperly disassembling or reassembling it.
