Sounds like someone took it apart and could not correctly adjust the timing when they assembled it.
Never hunted with it cause it was so unreliable. For some reason it refused to go "Bang" each time you pulled the trigger. Wrote to Browning 2x and never even got a reply. Sent it to a very knowledgeble smith and he thought it needed a new cam which is why I wrote to Browning. Another smith reckons the problem is simpler and merely due to the 2 piece firing pin assembly. Still waiting for it to be fixed.
BTW when it does not fire, the hammer falls but there is not even an indentation on the primer.
If you know how to fix this let me know & also how to make the trigger pull better.
