henry d Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Don`t even think about putting another cartridge in it until you`ve had it checked out.It could set ait off as you close the gun :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miffy Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 I'd definately take it to the gunsmith to get it checked regardless of cost........imagine closing the gun loaded and it goes off...it might cost you your freedom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemini Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Sounds like a broken firing pin. What gun is it, because if it has removable disk-set strikers, then it will be easy to replace. If on the other hand it is one with all-in-one hammers……then that will be expensive. G.M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Geordie Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Broken pin or collapsed spring either way easy to repair don't worry. If your not competent enough to do this then take it to a gunsmith as mentioned earlier. LG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveK Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Mine hasn't gone off in my hand for years. :o :*) Dave Had a similar problem with a shotgun once though. As "Biggead" says. It was the firing pin broken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
