My Tristar semi auto 12 gauge has functioned perfectly for a year or so but locked up. I disassembled and cleaned but now the barrel will not seat all the way into the receiver. I cant get the dang thing back together. Tried taking the trigger group out and various combinations of safety on, hammer down or the reverse. Frustrating as all get out because it should be EASY. Can't find anything about reassembly in the manual or anywhere on the web that tells me I'm doing anything wrong. ANy suggestions?

That's an excellent refernce with good photographs model70man - but it only tells me how to take it apart!!! I need reassembly directions. Somehow the reverse of taking it apart doesn't seem to be working!

I'm sorry, I was hoping you could get it back together by that. Sometimes it helps to just walk away wondering why we ever got into guns so much and then return and try it again.

Turned out that a spring on the trigger assembly was out of place and blocking the barrel from fully seating. Fixed now.
