The carrier is about an inch from the follower, so moving the carrier up should not/will not touch the follower.

Im lost on this one. Been shooting these for a LONG time and have never heard of this one. I still think the diagnosis is incorrect and my gut is now thinking is a trigger group issue, may be assembled wrong, that I have seen before.

I bought a 11-87 from a guy that he said would not open, and it would not. When I looked at the gun I needed to take the barrel off to remove the LIVE round. So I took it off his hands for 150 :-) After further investigation bubba the g-smith had it put together wrong..

Re-assembled the trigger properly and the guns been perfect ever since, still have it.
