    Sorry - but nobody here can help you because you did not provide anywhere near enough information. That is like saying your car wont start - and we have no clue if the key fits or it's out of gas - or the 20 other things inbetween that could be the issue.

    Since it appears you are not mechanically inclined - you should just bring it to a gunsmith. Pay the $35 to have him check it out.

    You should immediately trade it in at first opportunity and purchase something more in line with your mental level. I recommend a rubber fork. Because you should not own a firearm.

    I have no idea what your skill level is regarding firearm repairs, but since you just admitted you have no clue what happened to the gun, my guess is that you aren't capable of fixing it yourself.

    Its probably time for a trip to the local gun shop.

    Take it to the local gunsmith. The usual problem is different for each shotgun.

    Apparently the nut behind the trigger has worked itself loose.

    You have no information to give so at the best we can make blind educated guesses.

    If there is a slight dent in the primer then firing pin/spring problem. If there is no dent after the snap then broken transfer bar. That is the bar that comes up between hammer and firing pin. Some cheap shotguns have cast bars.(on some shotguns)

    Sounds to me like a warped usigifas rod. Alas, usifigas rods are no longer being manufactured.

    Maybe you can help me. My car won't start today. It started yesterday. Why is it broken? Can I fix it? Please help.
