Guest RemmySPS Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 Check if the firing pin is broken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfa taf Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 If there is a strike mark, I would think not a broken firing pin. Maybe a weak spring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beretta Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 could be a weak or broken pin spring or just a hard or low set primer. try a few other carts of different type to see. if its still the same it will be the spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magman Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 My bet would be on a broken firing pin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

straightshooter1 Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 could be a worn firing pin or a spring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harnser Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 Being the bottom barrel ,which is generally used a lot more often than the top barrel ,my money would be on a worn striker . easily replaced . Have them both replaced . Harnser . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
