What would cause the firing pin to stay stuck in the fired position?
After putting one cartridge in the cylinder rotated the cylinder and the cartridge head hung up on the firing pin because it was protruding out. Tried to push it in with a screwdriver blade and it would not budge
I removed the firing pin retaining pin and had to tap out the firing pin with a dowel, the firing pin spring did not seem out of whack.
There is an indention on the back where the hammer strikes it but it's not mushroomed out
It's like a little slot,
there seems to be some corrosion or something on the firing pin itself Maybe, guess I'll go back and look at my fire cases Maybe I miss the pierced primer
???
