I have a buckmark pistol made in 2005.
I have hade some reliability issues lately that I want to run by you guys.
When the pistol is cleaned it will run couple of hundred rounds without a hiccup. Soon thereafter I begin getting failure to fires. Review of the caseing suggest that the fireing pin is just knicking the cartridge base...not center enough to cause ignition.
I replaced the guide rod, springs, fireing pin, housing...everything but the extractor.
I have not removed the extractor to clean...sprayed with cleaner but not removed.
I have place a cartridge under the extractor and it appears that it may be holding the 22 not completely centered..which may be the cause of the FTFires. I really don't know
I have pics at home if needed.
It does seem less common when I feed it minimags and more common with the cheaper stuff. Interestingly it goes away for a short time after its cleaned soon to return.
Please Help!
Should I remove and clean (or change) the extractor?...Not sure how to do this....is it something else?
Thanks
