Default gun broke

Hi

Only had my gun 2 weeks and trigger seems to be stuck the gun cocks ok but will not let you pull trigger and when you used to move the safety catch from s to f it used to be quite stiff now it is very easy to move from one to the other

Rang the air gun centre told me to send it back and will fix free of charge and free post sending it back

The gun is a bsa lightning xl

Any ideas what could be up with it

the safety on my Xl is easy to move, never been stiff.
maybe it's snapped.
i'd do what they suggest.

My guess would be the safety catch has broken in the safe position
