Model 121 Won't Lock Up. Help
My 121 works fine, fires the shells, but won't lock into battery. I have to hold it forward to fire. Is there a disassembly diagram or instruction sheet available. 121 videos on You Tube do not address repairs or problems, only operation and takedown.

I'm still looking for information on how to get my 121 to lock into battery.

CORRECTION--1 Remove carrier and cut away some metal from carrier where it rests at front end of guard.
2 Fit new carrier.

Thank you. I will get the old girl out and see if I can find any of those parts to examine.
