firing pin

Just got a Sears Ted Williams model 340.530430-.22 .22 rifle , and it shoots but won’t eject. The ejector itself works but the spent case only comes out a small amount and sticks (tried it with unfired rounds and they pop right out...for the most part). Gave the barrel a good scrubbing but it...

Hello all! I am rather new to this site but I have always found useful information here so I decided to sign up. I recently purchased an arisaka type 99 and I am missing the following parts: safety knob, firing pin, firing pin spring, and dust cover. I have been searching online trying to find...

Hi. While cleaning my relatively new (400 rounds through it) .45 cal Uberti 1873 Cattleman II single action revolver, I noticed a notch in the hole that the firing pin goes into that seems to indicate that the firing pin is striking the edge to some degree. I've attached a picture. I'm new to...

Hi all, I just did a trigger job on my semi-auto 12 gauge Turkish shotgun. The pull is just a bit better, but I noticed that when dry-firing there is no longer as much noise or shaking. I did not cut any springs at all, and just polished with fine file and dremel polishing bit the trigger and...

I have been told that this was made by Stevens and is their Model 94. How do I find out what series it is? It is a 16 gauge and I know it is not worth much money but it has sentimental value. The firing pin is not hitting the primer hard enough to reliably set it off every time. I have...

I have a Shultz and Larsen M70 target rifle. Some time last year, I was shooting and the firing pin broke off about 1/4" in from the bolt face. I took it apon myself to make a temporary fix by using a pop rivet stem as the missing half of the firing pin. So far I've ran a good 600 rounds through...

A client dropped off his 1970s ear Spanish Double 20 gauge because it was not firing. It took awhile to remove the firing pin bushings because he had dry fired it so much he had beat one bushing's threads and jammed it into the receiver. One firing pin barely works and the other was beaten to...
