mattsccm Posted April 29, 2022 Report Share Posted April 29, 2022 I have one of those Belgian 9mm shotguns. The firing pin doesn't always penetrate the cartridge rim and thus there is nowt in the way of bang! It doesn't look worn and on about the 3rd pull of the trigger it works. As you can imagine that is somewhat undesirable for several reasons. Any ideas? Spring somewhere within the bolt which I can't work out how to dismantle?

London Best Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 If you can’t dismantle the bolt just dunk it in diesel and give it a good soak. If the problem is rust/muck that might solve it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old'un Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 Usually a build up of crud inside the bolt, it needs coming apart but if that's not possible then do as London Best said soak it in something to dissolve the crud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunman Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 Is it a round nosed striker or a flat chisel end? It may just need a bit of dressing . Weak spring Dirt/rust /dried grease Probobly have to remove the extractor twist the bolt handle to take down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
