Where's Timps? This thread needs his expert opinion :lol::lol::lol:

 

I have been in my imaginary pub with my imaginary friends again. :P

 

This got me thinking, with an o/u if you open insert snap caps fire both pins then remove forend and thenopen and reassemble What springs are under tension

 

On a Beretta the ejector springs are always compressed when the gun is closed no matter what you do.

 

I went down to the Beretta worlds last week and GMK's resident gunsmith replaced my top locking bar and re-timed the ejectors at the shoot. He dry fired the gun loads of times while working on it, not a snap cap in sight, he also did the same to a few other guns whilst I was there.

 

It’s up to you if you use them, I personally don’t as the snap caps get indented with use so offer no useful purpose after a while, I just leave my cocked.

 

But if you are going to use them smear them with Vaseline first, apparently it helps with insertion. <_<
