bruno22rf Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Should be fairly easy to find out whats causing the problem-next time she miss-fire wait a couple of minutes then cycle the shell manually-if the cartridge has been hit fair and square then its the shell-if not then its off to the gunsmith for you.

The Holy Goalie Posted January 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 yip the shell has bin hit ,,all times,,,have checked that ,,,,and as i said theres a new pin been put in :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldfish Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 (edited) If the cartridges have been hit cleanly in the middle of the primer with enough force then the problem is the cartridges. If they havent been hit hard enough then its the gun. You either need to go back to the gunsmith or get some more shells!

malkiserow Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 hows it goin,,,,a have a beretta urika s/a,,,keeps mis firing,,,had a new pin fitted was out on wednesday happened again,,,any ideas on wat might b wrong ,,,,,,,,,,,thanks Can I ask what the gunsmith had dianosed to fit a new pin? And you should speak with him again as perhaps it did not need a new pin and the problem was elsewhere, he should be sorting this as he took the problem on in the first place. Did you run the misfired cartridges back through and did they fire second time around? Is the mechanism cleaned then lubed and then gently wiped again? Do all the parts run freely?

activeviii Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 yesterday i had the same thing on a couple of carts. bird coming in and click, nothing, swapped out carts and it did same thing. what was different to the day before that!i stripped,cleaned the whole gun, then dry wipe with oil. gun in question was a U2. light oiling and today it was fine. but! a friend had the same problem today, what was different, stripped and cleaned with a dry oiling.his semi is a banelli(sp) i dont know if it was the cold weather and ice with no oil on moving parts.

chrispti Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Can you try the ''hit'' cartridges in another gun like an O/U? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edr Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 I have a beretta urika 2 synthetic i would check the that the cartridges are right down the chamber if there is a build up on the rim round the cartridge this could push the cartridge back; unless thebolt is fully closed you will get misfires. I would also try drop a cartridge in the chamber (safe place of course) and seeing if is getting caught on anything, dont use the bolt but press with your finger to check wether it placed rightly. I used to have cheap cartridges (steel) that had disc propelant and the burned discs used get caught all over the mechanism and get inbetween the workings, check everything over. If your current gunmith cannot do anything more maybe have it sent to a gmk gunsmith. EDR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harnser Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Sounds like cartridges or hammer is not hitting hard enough . Going on your description of the problem I would say its the hammer and you proberbly need a new hammer spring . Harnser . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ME Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 have you tried longer cartridges ? have you tried heavier loads through it ? is there any rust in the cap that you undo to take it apart ? does it go together tightly with no moment ?
