Hi everyone, just joined today been using the form as a reference for some time now, all ways good info here on the high road. To the point, had my buckmark stainless camper for almost a year now and i love it (even thought the screw in the plastic upper dose backout like everyone said) I was out shooting it today and about half way thu the 4th mag i had a round that made a very light pop.
Im shooting CCI standards and with my ear protection on it really didnt sound right, i wasent sure the round even left the barrel. after dropin the mag and carefully pullin the slide back I inspected the gun every thing seemed fine beside a little extra blackness and some unburnt powder. I am in Maine and it was only like 15 out there so im blaming it on the cold. when i picked the spent case up it has black all up the top and around where the pin struck! so I took it all back in the house for some better light. the black was just curd however but whats got me worried in the strike seems really deep and has sharp square edges i checked some other CCI Brass i had collected the strike dents all seem to be like this with sharp edges, Wow i could have made this shorter prolly, sorry
Do you think my firing pin is to long or could benefit from some reshaping. there is a noticable dent on the barrel, but the gun has maybe been dry fired 3 times. could be nothing but i plan on getin a tac-sol barrel and do not want it to be damaged (at almost $200 its 2/3ds what i paid for the gun new) Any Feed back is welcome.
Cheers!
