Just curious if anyone would know the possible reason of why my Condor SS won't cock its stuck in the closed position. It's a relatively newer gun only about 1000 rounds have been put through it. Any help would be appreciated.
Tuning Airforce Condor SS not cocking
- Thread starter Xsport
- Start date
Sounds like something broken/jammed inside the receiver tube. I would suggest removing the barrel along with the spring/weight/hammer and inspecting if it can't be returned under warranty. You might try cocking while pulling the trigger but I would still want to know WHAT is jamming and why.

If I recall, this is a issue with the safety. I believe that something happens in there that binds everything up during the automatic safety feature that prevents it from working appropriately. I think I fixed this by deleting that feature on my rifle.

Could well be-I removed the auto safety upon receipt of my rifle so I have no experience with problems it may cause. Trying to cock while pulling trigger should indicate whether the "hammer block" is dropping when trigger is pulled or not.

The Hammer spring is from Talon tunes and set on power #1 I changed that out from brand new with no issues and worked fine even when turned up to #6. I've tried pulling trigger and wiggled the safety but no luck. I will disassemble and report back. Any info on how to do a safety delete while I have it taken apart?
Thanks

Ok I got the gun apart and yes it was the safety it got jamed up and the metal piece that comes up into the rifle fell through. So my question is do I have to punch through the rivets and remove the whole safety assembly or just that little tab that peeks into the breech area of the gun?

It's been a long time since I had my trigger group apart but if I recall correctly there is a "toggle link" that can be removed which will then allow both manual safety function as well as decocking. There were pictures of the process/parts on several spots once but it seems they are no longer up.

If I remember right, you just have to punch the pin over enough to get that tab out. Make sure the springs go back in the correct positions under the plate, and you should be left with a gun that can be placed on/off safe manually. Plus I think you can decock it without firing by holding the breach block go release spring pressure.
It has been quite awhile since I did mine, so just be sure to verify everything in a safe location.
It appears all the tutorials and videos for this mod have been removed, probably for liability reasons, as you are defeating a designed safety feature. Something to keep in mind, if you do remove it.

Awesome! I never liked the safety because of the noise and extra step before shooting etc.... I couldn't find any information on how to do it. I guess it makes sense that the content was taken down. I appreciate all the help!

Go to Talon Tunes T.A.G. Forum and go to the condor/condor ss part. The first topic is how to de cock the condor ss. Go to page three and you will find the picks on how to remove the part that disables the auto safety.
