Yeah I know they aren't quality derringers. Got one just for fun because I liked them from old westerns and to see if I could hit anything .
At first it fired okay not for long though . Now light primer strikes on the bottom barrel . Firing pin isn't protruding as much as the top barrel ...
I had some handloads that would not let the slide close . I could not eject the round or chamber it .
I tapped it shut with a rubber mallet . It fired but now it will not go into single action . Any idea of what damage I caused ? Thanks
Got one the other day . Tried a few rounds , click but no bang . Primers weren't even dented . Took it apart and it has a broken firing pin .
Does the firing pin help it eject the round ?
I think it's a really cool tiny pistol . What really made me buy it was the year it was made...

Hi
What are you experiences with Duracoat ?
I would like to try it on a pistol .
How far did you strip it down ?
Did it turn out well ?
Is the $ 49.95 kit they have worth it ?
Thanks , Bill

Hi
I really like Midway , never ordered from Grafs .

Do I have this right ? Midway won't ship primers and
powder together . Charge $20 hazmat plus $9.99 handling fee

Grafs charge $20 hazmat , shipping is in price and
