Default 460V hammer and trigger won't fully move
I just bought a used 460XVR 5" barrel from Cabela's. I shot about 60 rounds from it with no problems. Cleaned it when I got home from the range on Wednesday.
Today, I noticed that the trigger wasn't returning completely forward. I had to push it forward with my trigger finger. Now the trigger won't move all the way back. It goes about half way. Hammer won't move more tha half way either. Any ideas what has happened? Thank you.

It's a long shot, but take the stocks off and tighten the strain screw. If it is tight, or this doesn't help, there is a good chance you have a broken hammer or trigger stud.

Plan on calling S&W and arrange sending it to the factory under warrantee. 800-331-0852
