Thought i would share this with you all.

As a lot of you know I have an Omega that I thought I would try this season, well I did encouter a problem with it yesterday that caught me off guard a bit... The trigger group froze up. It has been snowing heavily here for the last days the trees and bruch are loaded. Yesterday while hunting in the blizzard and with the combination of snow falling from brush and trees the trigger group collected al lot of snow - also melted a good deal of this snow from the warmth of the metal. Well when the snow stopped and the skies cleared ad the temp dropped to 12 - all that melted snow - now moister in the trigger - froze - I mean froze hard. I went to pul the hammer back on a doe - NOT GOING TOHAPPEN... I was able to drop the breech and then blowing warmair from my defrost the thing - I kept working the mechanism the rest of the morning to make sure that it didn't freeze again - well it did but not as hard I was able to pull the hammer back... That afternoon when the temp came back up and it started snowing again no problems...
