I purchased a Uberti revolver a couple weeks ago - Calif resident here, so there's the mandatory 'Cooling Off Period' of 10 days.
Anyhow - The gun has been shipped and recieved by the FFL and I looked at it and get to pick it up soon.
I took the pamphlet out of the box and I'm trying to learn about the firing pin on those.
It's a floating firing pin that has a little plunger behind it in the hammer that only allows the firing pin to hit the primer if the trigger is pulled..
If you own one like that, then you know what I'm referring to.
So I'm not familiar with that system at all...
Does anyone here have experience with those types of revolvers using that firing pin?
Good? Bad? High maintenance? Fragility? Durability?
Thanks in advance - looking forward to replies
