    I think the gunsmith is a disgrace. Firstly if you going to get anything like a half cock, or trigger Mod done etc everything should be fully tested to make sure theres no problem.
    Surely if it was tested correctly this would have been picked up. Secondly after getting it back i would of tested it out myself before using it , for piece of mind. i got my trigger lightered down to just on 2lb on my REM 308 at a gunsmiths.
    I made it quite clear i wanted everything checked after, the half cocked, the safety etc. The gunsmith said when he handed it back that everything is working like it should, tried all the tests over a period to get a accidental discharge etc and it was fine, great safety and great half cock. I then tried it out myself and all was good and the trigger was awesome.
    If it was fine then after the MOd straight away its going off when its not meant to tells me the gunsmith did a shit job or no testing and you should of tested it out too before you used it in the field
